The Fibrenamics Institute achieved an important milestone by obtaining the ISO 9001:2015 and NP 4457:2021 certifications, issued by SGS (Société Générale de Surveillance) and accredited by IPAC (Portuguese Accreditation Institute). This recognition strengthens Fibrenamics' strategic positioning in the market and reflects the Institute's ongoing commitment to excellence, quality, and innovation.

Quality Management System 

ISO 9001:2015, the most widely used management system standard worldwide, helps companies improve their performance and ensure customer satisfaction.

For Fibrenamics, this certification reflects the Institute's commitment to optimizing its services and processes, ensuring that the needs and expectations of its partners are met with the highest quality.

 

Research, Development, and Innovation Management

The NP 4457:2021 standard, which defines how companies should organize and manage their research, development, and innovation activities, recognizes Fibrenamics as a center of excellence in the development and implementation of innovative solutions in fibrous and composite materials, aligning with the best market practices.

 

From Science To People

These certifications represent an important milestone in Fibrenamics' journey, which will continue to invest in developing and implementing integrated and customized technological innovation solutions in fibrous and composite materials, with continuous improvement as a fundamental pillar for its growth.

"It is a very important step in ensuring the quality of the services offered by Fibrenamics to its ecosystem partners in innovation, including companies, technological centers, and innovation institutes. On the other hand, obtaining these certifications commits us to continuous improvement, in the daily pursuit of solutions for a more sustainable and inclusive future. We will continue to develop our actions under the motto From Science to People, but now with our quality and innovation management systems fully validated by external entities."
