The V-ROD
edge
V-ROD, A guarantee of quality!
V-ROD ensures that you receive products free of imperfections, defects, and significant variations through a strict and consistent monitoring of measurable and verifiable standards to achieve consistency in the products supplied while meeting each customer’s specific requirements on every shipment.
Through routine sampling, our quality control process ensures that our products meet customer specifications and are within the prescribed limits of dimensional variation markers.
In addition, V-ROD has put in place the required tools for Statistical Process Control (SPC). SPC aims to improve product quality through the use of statistical tools to ensure that production is centred and as less dispersed as possible. This quality control is “dynamic”; unlike routine tests, it is not interested in isolated and instantaneous results but rather in a follow-up over time.
This is more than just a part meeting the specifications. We make sure to monitor the chronological distribution of parts within the range of tolerance, determine the causes, and make the necessary corrections when we detect a trend.
We are ISO certified since 1994:
- • ISO9001 Certification (since 2003)
- • TS16949 Certification (since 2009)
- • ISO14001 Certification (since 2016)
Our services
Doing business with V-ROD means working with strong expertise, see our full range of services below.
Assistance - Engineering
At V-ROD, we recognize that the use of our composite concrete reinforcing bars technology in your engineering work is not yet commonplace. Some inherent product peculiarities require a slight adaptation of working methods mainly because of the temporary absence of abacuses and design software. We therefore compensate for these shortcomings by offering you an engineering assistance service through two civil engineers who are members of our team.
Furthermore, if you have already undertaken or completed your steel reinforcement design and are considering the use of an alternative technology that offers the advantage of being completely insensitive to corrosion, we can convert your plans and specifications free of charge and provide you with a budgetary evaluation of the scope of your project if it were carried out with V•ROD. Do not hesitate to request these services.
