The Wallwork Group heat treating site in Bury has been accredited with NADCAP Gold Merit Status. The site, one of four, comprises 90,000 square foot of processing space. The company is the largest independent heat treater in the UK offering 117 thermal processes. Making them a key part of the country’s industrial base.
“The quality team comprising Florence Wiggans, Helen Ellis, Colin Bagley and Dan Kenyon have a massive task in maintaining the high standards expected by our customers. Achieving NADCAP Gold Merit Status is down to their skill, dedication and supreme effort. As the largest single site for aerospace checklists, their hard work is vital to the success of the company,” explained Group Director, Simeon Collins.
To achieve Gold Merit, Wallwork had to achieve two consecutive accreditations of 18 months each. Without any major NCRs and with less than seven days of cumulative delinquency. Achieving a merit level is only the start. Constant vigilance is required to maintain the systems that support it.
Speaking for the quality team, Helen Ellis commented, “NADCAP, while very important, is one of many accreditations and quality standards that we ensure the company meets. There are many others including AS/EN9100, ITAR compliance and numerous aerospace prime approvals.”
“Wallwork continues to invest in the latest specification aerospace furnaces alongside investment in people and training to achieve the required levels of quality on a daily basis. We appreciate the dedication of all staff in their diligence at performing their tasks to the highest standards,” Simeon concluded.
Established in 1959, the company has calculated it currently boasts over 2000 years of combined thermal processing experience. In addition to tapping into this deep reservoir of knowledge and skill, customers in aerospace, top-level motorsport, advanced medical devices and more, can concentrate their resources on their own core activities, with the certainty that Wallwork Heat Treatment will process their components to the exacting standards demanded in aerospace.
