Quality is the core of our quality steels

quality steel

The continuous continuous improvement of our products, processes and workflows is a constant task for all our employees at LSV Lech-Stahl Veredelung GmbH. The sustainable and efficient use of resources has a great importance to us. The basis for this is an integrated management system which defines our requirements and monitors compliance. This effective quality assurance system ensures our consistently high quality. It ranges from materials testing to certification. The core of our quality steels is quality.

The ISO 9001 quality management standard forms the basis for the minimum requirements of the quality management system. LSV Lech-Stahl Veredelung has been complying with DIN EN ISO 9001 for many years and thus makes a lasting contribution to customer satisfaction.

In addition, we meet the high quality demands of the automotive industry with certification in accordance with the automotive standard IATF 16949. Already certified according to the predecessor standards QS9000 and ISO TS 16949, compliance and improvement of our system and process quality along the entire value chain is not only integrated into our processes, but is actively lived by us.

Particularly as a steel-producing company, we see ourselves as responsible for sustainable management and the careful use of our resources. A characteristic feature of the steel sector is that materials are recycled as far as possible. Steel production is considered to be very energy-intensive, which must not limit our efforts to reduce primary energy requirements. As a subsidiary of the only steelworks in Bavaria, Lech-Stahlwerke, our steel is melted from recycled scrap in electric arc furnaces. Compared to the conventional steel production process, our steel is therefore produced with lower CO2 emissions. Therefore, the certifications of our environmental management according to DIN EN ISO 14001 and energy management according to DIN EN ISO 50001 are an expression of our awareness of sustainable resource efficiency.
