The ISO 3834 is an internationally recognised standard that focuses on the quality management of welding processes. ISO 3834 can be used by the manufacturer to demonstrate that the welding products are manufactured according to an appropriate quality level
ISO 3834 is not intended to supplant ISO 9001 as your main quality management system but to supplement it and is a useful tool in satisfying the ‘special processes’ clause in that standard. Its application is also a requirement for conformity with many product standards such as EN 1090 EN 15085 and PESR.
Thames Welding’s Certified Welding engineers have introduced welding quality management systems under ISO 3834 for a number of manufacturers throughout the UK ranging from SMEs to multinational organisations across a wide variety of industrial sectors including power generation, structural steel and rail.
