Product Quality

Maintaining consistent product quality and thereby improving customer satisfaction is the core objective of Qatar Steel. ‘Quality’ at Qatar Steel includes several important elements i.e.to meet the customer requirements; to deliver defect-free products; and to provide timely customer service.
We achieve and maintain quality of the products via two broad strategies:

  • Use Of Only High-Quality Raw Materials As Input For Our Operations.
  • Implementation Of Rigorous Quality And Process Control Systems

All products, including reinforcing bars, are manufactured from selected raw materials with defined chemical compositions pre-tested for quality at different stages of the production cycle. We have long-term contracts with our suppliers for key raw materials that allow uninterrupted operations in our manufacturing facilities. Inspection and testing of samples are conducted throughout the manufacturing process to ensure compliance with quality standards and customer requirements.

Qatar Steel also uses sophisticated quality-control laboratories to ensure delivery of high-quality products. Our labs are ISO 17025:2017 accredited, and are equipped with modern computerized testing and analytical instruments, including chemical testing analyzers and mechanical testing machines.

Maintaining Product Quality through Certifications

UK CARES Quality and Operations Assessment Schedule The CARES Quality and Operations Assessment Schedule is centered around the essential elements of the Quality Management System, and additionally incorporates requirements for process control and product testing agreed upon by all relevant sectors of industry. The Schedule consists of the application of three main elements of CARES Product Certification:

  • The manufacturers’ management system as defined by BS EN ISO 9001.
  • Full requirements of the relevant product standards.
  • Control of the manufacturing process to produce a consistent level of compliance.

Qatar Steel has maintained compliance with the CARES Quality and Operations Assessment Schedule since 2006.

ISO/IEC 17025: 2005 Laboratory Accreditation This certification was attained in 2014. It specifies the general requirements for competence in carrying out tests and/or calibrations, including sampling. The accreditation covers testing and calibration performed using standard methods, non-standard methods, and laboratory-developed methods, and is designed for the development of laboratory management systems for quality, administrative, and technical operations.

TURKAK is a signatory to the European co-operation for Accreditation and International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC). This accreditation enables QS to further maintain our reputation as a company that follows the highest standards in product quality in comparison to peer companies.

UK CARES Product Certification CARES Product Certification was developed to meet the needs of customers using steel products for the reinforcement of concrete. CARES has acquired extensive experience in designing and operating certification schemes that cater to the reinforced concrete industry.
