How we hold on to quality

Quality comes first at Sailer. This is what it means at our company, in concrete terms.

Thorough final inspection

Your parts are carefully checked before they are shipped.

The surface counts too

Our craftsmen have an eye for detail, and it is one of the important reasons customers stay with us.

A check on what comes back

Work that has been with a partner, for hardening or anodising for example, goes through our incoming inspection before it goes out to you.

ISO 9001

We have worked according to the methodology of ISO 9001 for years, which helps to safeguard the quality we deliver.
