ISO certification isn’t just a badge—it’s a powerful signal that a company is committed to quality, consistency, and continuous improvement. For customers, it means peace of mind. For companies, it means rigorous internal standards that enhance every aspect of operations.

At TMC – The Mate Company, we’re proud to be ISO AS9100 certified, an internationally recognized quality management system tailored for the aerospace, aviation, and defense industries. This certification builds on ISO 9001 and adds even more stringent requirements for traceability, risk management, and process control.

What ISO AS9100 Certification Means

ISO AS9100 is the gold standard for companies that manufacture components requiring aerospace-level quality assurance. To achieve and maintain certification, a company must consistently demonstrate its ability to:

• Meet or exceed customer and regulatory requirements
• Maintain robust risk management and process controls
• Ensure traceability and product conformity
• Continually improve systems, safety, and efficiency

This means fewer defects, greater reliability, and better outcomes for every customer.
