Quality Assurance
We at Kisco believe in the principles that forge the way for some of the best manufacturing facilities in the world. Since 1992 we have adhered to some basic principles,
- Flat and transparent management structure, the senior management sees things for themselves; hence have more than just a superficial understanding of situations.
- Continuous process improvement - It is done by having close control on the process parameters like temperature, time, composition, degassing, etc.
- Standardized tasks from production to administration are to promote continuous improvement and empower employees to learn better and faster.
- Flat and transparent management structure, the senior management sees things for themselves; hence have more than just a superficial understanding of situations.
Kisco’s tradition demands perfection in every phase of production – whether it is production of forged alloy steel bars, forgings, SG iron castings, rolled alloy steel bars or other steel products. We manufacture from a variety of grades as per specific process and composition requirements. This requires expertise with close supervision on the process flow. To assure quality, we perform tests and checks at every stage possible, from molding to material dispatch. Kisco Castings has always maintained the belief that the end product is very much dependent on the raw materials that goes into our steel making. Using only certified and tested raw material has always been a practice at Kisco. For this sole purpose Kisco and its directors have established a new venture, Kisco Global LLC, in US with its vision of being a consistent supplier of quality raw material.
