On the basis of DIN EN ISO 9001, the K+S Group has established a quality management system. Over 80 % of all production sites already possess a QM certificate under ISO 9001:2000 at least in sub-areas. In 2009, 45 % of our employees worked in certified areas. Our goal is to constantly further improve the safety and environmental-friendliness of our products in all stages of the value chain, from the extraction of our raw materials through production and distribution to application. The K+S Group holds a wide range of certificates, which document the high standard of our production sites and manufacturing processes.
