Associated Spring has added an online shopping facility to its website, covering some 80% of the company's vast range of springs, washers, die components and fasteners.
Compliance means that distributors have the ability to handle customer specific guidelines and provide customised services while maintaining a consistent level of quality throughout its operations.
Anixter's certification was driven by an expanding presence in the aerospace market, and has ultimately led to opportunities for growth within the industry.
This quality certificate is an essential requirement for any distributor within this market.
The accreditation process required Anixter to make some positive changes to procedures and for a standardisation of others to be put into place.
These changes allowed Anixter to meet the criteria for both the AS9120 accreditation as well as the ISO9001 quality standard.
"AS9120 was a great achievement, but it was only the first step", says Dan Lynch, Anixter Adhesives General Manager.
"The challenge now is to maintain it, stick to the procedures and keep improving them".
