Experience and Accolades QSi has been designing and manufacturing quality health and safety equipment for more than 40 years, drawing on over 70 years of safety experience. Our many years of manufacturing experience have given us a reputation for innovative product development. Our service based approach, broad thinking on product development, and efficient cost structure has seen us continue to grow our market share in New Zealand. These attributes were recognised by the New Zealand Ministry of Health when, in 2007, QSi won the government tender to provide 20 million face masks to combat the threat of Bird Flu. The successful fulfilment of this contract required all aspects of QSi’s diverse skill set, from design and sourcing raw materials, manufacture, supply, distribution and stock management. As a result, QSi won several accolades: • ABN Amro Craigs Supreme Business of the Year Award • Primary Industry Manufacturing and Exporting Excellence Award • Technical Industry Award Core Products • First Aid and Emergency Kits - Assembled in New Zealand. • Spill Absorbent Products - Biodegradable fibre mined and packed in New Zealand. Pillows and socks assembled in NZ. • Height Safety - ISO9001 - AS/NZ1891 and 5532 or equivalent EN Standards - IANZ Accredited Laboratory - ISO 17025. • Manufacturing of clothing to the AS/NZ 1906.4:2010, AS/NZS 4602.1:2011 and new TTMC-W standard. • Respiratory Products - ISO9001 - AS/NZS1716 - EN149:2011+A1:2009. • General Medical and Safety Products (various standards apply). Quality New Zealand Manufacturing We manufacture and assemble a number of products here in our local Whanganui factory, giving us direct control over quality and the ability to quickly and easily scale our output to meet demand with minimal lead time. Many other customer benefits are achieved by manufacturing and testing in New Zealand, including work-specific products, current dates, and ongoing surveillance of product.
