Demonstrating high standards in health, safety, environment, and quality
Beran Instruments is proud to have achieved the Achilles Verify Category B2 accreditation, a respected certification that recognises our high standards in health and safety, environmental management, and quality practices.
This accreditation reinforces our ongoing commitment to operational excellence and positions us as a trusted, pre-qualified supplier within the utilities sector.
Audit overview
The two-day assessment carried out by Achilles included a comprehensive audit of our management systems, covering:
- Health and safety procedures
