Quality Processes
More than 10 years after being the first wheelchair securement company to earn ISO certification, Q'Straint remains ISO compliant, reinforcing our commitment to the highest quality standards for management and operations. This focus on quality means that our processes -- design, engineering, manufacturing, testing, administration and shipping -- meet those exact standards.
Relentless Testing
With so much resting on the quality of our products, we subject our systems to the industry's most comprehensive independent and in-house testing, ensuring they meet or exceed international and country-specific safety standards including ISO, SAE, BSI, FMVSS, ADA, CMVSS, CSA and AS.
Independent Testing
Our systems are evaluated by the world's most respected independent testing organizations, and earn approval for crash testing standards in each country where our products are sold.In-House Testing and Inspection
Our Quality Assurance team performs the latest statistical techniques to a variety of tests on our systems and components:
- Computer simulations ensure the fit, form and function of a product while still in development
- In-process inspections at every stage of production, assembly and packaging
- Dynamic and static pull testing ensures all products meet strength requirements
- Cycle testing of every component ensures functionality and reliability over a minimum of 50,000 cycles
- Vehicle motion simulation to ensure proper restraint functioning in emergency driving conditions
- Advanced video measuring systems to ensure accurate dimensions and tolerances
- Fatique, corrosion, hardness and environmental weather testing ensures reliability and longevity
- Field testing of our systems and products in "real world" applications
As an additional demonstration of our commitment to quality, our company is also extensively involved in the review and development of worldwide safety standards for wheelchair and occupant securement systems.
