Company certification according to EN 1090 and EN 3834
SIST EN ISO 1090-1
For construction products, which also include components of metal structures, it is necessary to carry out the conformity assessment procedure. Every product that comes on the market or is installed in a facility must be equipped with a declaration of properties that confirms that the product complies with the requirements stated in the technical specifications.
For metal components, a conformity assessment system marked 2+ is used. This assumes that the manufacturer has implemented an internal control system in the plant and that he determines the type of product. The task of the notified body is to certify the internal control in the plant and maintain regular controls.
A manufacturer wishing to supply components of metal structures to the European market must first obtain a certificate of conformity for factory production control (FPC) from a notified body (NB - Notified body). Institut za varilstvo d.o.o. is a notified body.

SIST EN 3834
In the production of metal products (e.g. steel structures, pressure equipment, machines, elevators, bridges, transport vehicles and others), welding is usually an indispensable method of joining individual parts during their production, assembly and maintenance.
Welding and related activities must be carried out to such an extent that they ensure the achievement of a certain quality, so the task of achieving a suitable ratio between quality and the costs associated with it is demanding.
It is practically impossible to control the quality of individual welding activities every time, so it is much more appropriate in the company to establish a system that continuously achieves the required quality.
By fulfilling certain requirements from the EN ISO 3834 series of standards, all of this can be achieved, and with independent certification, the company can also demonstrate this externally. In this way, the trust of clients undoubtedly increases, and it brings the organization a competitive advantage in several areas: savings in production and warranty periods, eliminating the need for external assessments for supplier purposes, reducing the volume of complaints, advertising effect and so on. Here, it is important to emphasize that, based on an international standard, it is a globally widespread and recognized system, which enables business opportunities in domestic as well as foreign markets all over the world.
