Eagle Glass meets ISO certification

Date: 30 June 2003

A local company is now certified with the International Standards Organization, an achievement only about 130 companies in the state have acquired.

Eagle Glass Specialties Inc. has met the ISO requirements for a quality management system, said Gwen Kohut, vice president and general manager of the company.The result of the certification will hopefully mean a sales increase.Buyers often have more faith in ISO-certified companies, she said.

ISO works with 147 countries to create national standards in international organizations, governments, industries and businesses.

Certification moves the company to new level, said Mark Messenger, a sales engineer.

"It's definitely a great tool that sets us apart from other companies that aren't certified," Messenger said.

The company worked for two years to achieve certification, he said. Its success can be attributed to good training and hard work, he said.
