Quality, safety and reliability are top priorities in the aerospace industry, so Thyssen Krupp Aerospace — a leading supply-chain specialist — has its facilities world-wide certified according to the EN 9100/ 9120 aerospace quality standards; they also form the basis of the company’s global quality management system.

During the last fiscal year, all the company’s units in Europe, the USA, Canada and China were converted to the new versions of EN 9100/9120. Its Brazilian unit — Thyssen Krupp Autômata — now also meets all the necessary criteria, having recently received EN 9120 certification in addition to its existing EN 9100 certification.

It is one of the first companies in South America to have both certifications.

Thyssen Krupp Aerospace is a leading supplier of materials, supply-chain solutions and metal-working services for the aerospace industry. It has a global network of 44 locations, with over 2,000 employees in more than 20 countries.

Meanwhile, Thyssen Krupp Materials Services has some 480 locations — including 271 warehouse sites — in over 40 countries and is the biggest materials distributor and service provider in the western world.
