To achieve certification, Pacamor Kubar Bearings demonstrated a comprehensive and effective quality management system that governs all areas of its operation. PKB was evaluated throughout every phase of the manufacturing process, including procurement, production, and testing to accounting, logistics, information systems and human resources.
