Sinar Rasa is already an ISO-compliant company, in the process of getting a certification. However, we are already an Australian Standards certified company. The quality management system under the AS 2208 standards is exactly the same as under the ISO 9000 system, minus a few of the clauses. However, under AS 2208 standards, our products are tested and verified that they meet the relevant standards. This is not part of the ISO system. The ISO system is only a quality management program, where as the AS 2208 standards is for both the quality management and product certification.

Our tempered and laminated glass are rigorously tested under the impact test, fragmentation test and accelerated aging schemes. This product certification is highly important in a field such as the safety glass industry we are in.
