Control means certainty – MEWA quality management

Clean solutions for the environment

We are proud that our textile management has achieved uninterrupted certification in accordance with ISO 14001 for many years.
Cost-effective solutions for your company

The advantages of the reusable system are directly evident in their environmental balance.

We are only successful when you are successful. A sentence that reflects our philosophy and which, for us is valid in practice as well as theory. Consequently, for years we have relied on outstanding quality. Our quality management is exemplary for the industry and certified in accordance with ISO 9001, for good reason.

As a company that relies on the reusable principle, naturally, environmental protection is a top priority for us. We are proud that in 1997 we were the first company in our industry to receive the internationally valid environmental certificate in accordance with ISO 14001 and that we have qualified for recertification since then without interruption. With this international environmental management standard we have obligated ourselves to not only comply with the statutory regulations, but also to define and implement our environmental objectives in a manner that is quantifiable. This applies for our wash processes as well as for our products and services.

MEWA textile management:
We ensure MEWA quality through our extensive total quality management system. MEWA has been certified in quality management in accordance with ISO 9001 since 1992. The advantage: Our customers obtain uniformly high quality standards – throughout Europe and all MEWA operations.

MEWAtex wipers:
The MEWATEX wipers system is certified in accordance with DIN EN ISO 9001 and 14001. All washing MEWA operations work in accordance with these certifications.
Dirty wipers that can be reused do not fall under the Recycling and Waste Management Act. Consequently, the necessity of logging disposal and recycling verifications is dispensed with for dirty MEWA wipers. This is more than a clear advantage for our customers, relative to the users of disposable wipers who must deal with waste disposal in conformity with the law.

MEWA uses biodegradable laundry detergent exclusively in accordance with the Detergents and Cleaning Agents Act. For transport and storage of the cloths MEWA uses the SaCon® container, which is an in-house MEWA development. The MEWA SaCon® is approved in accordance with the ADR directives (European Agreement Concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road), and approved by the German Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM), Berlin for transport of contaminated cleaning cloths, and the container is cleaned and subjected to a quality test for each cycle. The MEWA SaCon® and SaCon fix® protection system has EC prototype approval and satisfies the requirements for use in areas that are subject to explosion hazard.
