Quality-Led Supply

Supplying the correct component is only one part of the requirement. The material, inspection records, testing evidence, treatment history, coating documentation and final certification pack must also align with the customer's specification. SNB reviews the documentation requirement at enquiry stage and manages the required records through to delivery.

Traceability Managed from Material to Final Documentation

Where required by the specification, materials are sourced with mill heat, cast or batch references. Records can link the original material source through to the finished component and final certification pack. Identification can use marking, etching, stamping or another appropriate method where specified.
