ISO9001 : 2015
ISO9001:2015 is an internationally recognised mark of quality assurance.
In the most simple terms, a quality management system such as ISO 9001 is a clearly defined set of business processes. Together with the relevant documentation, it defines our commitment to creating products and services in accordance with pre-defined standards.

BESA
Established in 1904, BESA has a proud heritage and has been known by several names throughout its history, most notably as the Heating and Ventilating Contractors’ Association (HVCA). Now operating as BESA, their primary focus is to support and serve their members active in the design, installation, commissioning, maintenance, control and management of engineering systems and services in buildings.
BESA publishes DW154, the UK standard for plastic ductwork fabrication and installation. The technical committee which wrote that standard was chaired by Graham Handley, Roperhurst’s founder.
Roperhurst are one of only a handful of plastic ductwork specialists who are also members of BESA, and are regularly audited for quality and compliance by BESCA. Acting as a UKAS accredited body as part of the wider BESA Group, BESCA aims to help businesses and individuals within the UK to meet industry standards, ensuring compliance and promoting best practice within the building engineering services industry.

Thousands of buyers rely on the Constructionline platform to identify high quality, pre-approved construction suppliers. Constructionline validates all of its members, providing those buyers with a pool of high quality suppliers that they can confidently engage with.
PAS 91 is a standardised prequalification questionnaire, designed to reduce the need for suppliers to complete a variety of different documents for different clients, simplifying the process for suppliers. Developed by the British Standards Institute (BSI), the question set is the common minimum standard for construction procurement.
