In a world where deepfakes and fake claims blur the line between real and manufactured, authenticity matters more than ever. That’s why this November – World Quality Month – WearCheck is proudly reaffirming its commitment to real, verifiable quality.
For us, quality isn’t a buzzword. It’s the everyday standard that defines how we work — from the rigour of our scientific laboratory methods to the professionalism of our customer service.
A Legacy of Trust, Built on Certification
Our recent re-certification to ISO 9001:2015 by the South African Bureau of Standards (SABS) reinforces this commitment. WearCheck first earned ISO 9001 certification back in 1996, and added ISO 14001 in 2005. Every year, we undergo surveillance audits and, every three years, a full re-certification. It’s not a tick-box exercise — it’s how we keep our systems robust, our processes consistent, and our team focused on continual improvement.
As our Quality Administrator, Prinda Narasi, puts it:
“Our customers, especially fleet operators, rely on us for results they can trust. ISO 9001:2015 is independent confirmation that our systems are sound and our culture is built around quality. In a time when manipulated content can cloud judgment, verifiable, third-party certification helps customers separate marketing claims from proven capability.”
Why It Matters
For the transport sector, ISO 9001:2015 means dependable turnaround times, a right-first-time mindset, and clear, actionable reporting. It ensures every oil, fuel or coolant sample analysed by our team provides accurate, timely insights — the kind that support better maintenance decisions and longer equipment life.
Transparency Builds Trust
We always encourage our customers to verify supplier certifications. It’s easy to do: simply check with the issuing certification body or its online directory. Sadly, non-genuine certificates are not uncommon across industries. At WearCheck, we welcome verification — because transparency is part of the trust.
Quality Is How We Work
Our quality system isn’t something we “dust off” once a year. It’s alive and active — driven by internal audits, management reviews, risk-based thinking, and ongoing staff development. It’s this continuous focus that ensures consistent, reliable results in our laboratories and responsive support for our customers.
For nearly three decades, WearCheck has maintained multiple international quality confirmations, including ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO/IEC 17025:2017. We’ve never failed a renewal — and we don’t plan to start now.
Because when we say quality, we mean real quality — delivered by real people, using real science, for real results.
