QUALITY FIRST
SABS ISO 9001:2015
Our people matter to us and that is why we undertake to ensure that we adhere to the most stringent health and safety standards in South Africa. We also recognise that the success and reputation of our business depends on consistently achieving the highest standards of safety as much as it does on quality.
We are a SABS ISO 9001:2015 accredited company. Our workshop and functional departments are monitored, audited and controlled on a continuous basis to ensure that the proven systems in place are followed and that quality in all aspects is achieved.
SANS ISO 3834.
SANS ISO 3834 is a welder fabricator certification which is a requirement for fabricators who design and construct pressure equipment in South Africa to the ASME code.
This certification gives fabricators an internationally recognised quality “stamp” both locally and abroad.
BBBEE
ND Engineering is a 100% Black South African owned company. Through the active pursuit of meaningful empowerment, we have achieved a level 4 contribution status. There is still much work to be done to improve on this and a plan is in place to achieve a rating which is both sustainable and true to the people that it is empowering.
