Alliant Castings, a leader in the production of abrasion resistant castings, today announced it has become ISO 9001:2008 certified. ISO 9001:2008 is recognized by organizations worldwide as a quality management standard. The certification covers all processes related to product and service creation associated with Alliant's casting engineering and production that are performed or managed from Alliant's Winona-based headquarters.

This certification is a logical step along Alliant's growth path, which began operating in Minnesota in 1885. "From the beginning, Alliant has focused on delivering top-quality castings," said Tom Renk, Alliant Castings president. "As customer success continues to fuel our growth, it's imperative to maintain and continuously improve organizational processes."

"Our customers require castings that perform in highly abrasive and impact environments and they rightfully expect their technology partners to tightly control their processes," Renk continued. "Having certified processes in place minimizes risk and helps ensure that services and processes will not only maintain their proven levels of excellence but also continue to improve over the long term."
