Zero defects

Our customers, partners and team members rely on us to be able to design, create and deliver products and services that are reliable and free of defects. We have made a company-wide commitment to drive quality into everything we do — from designing, manufacturing and delivering our products to elevating the level of service we provide and expect from our internal and external business partners as well as our suppliers.

We are committed to providing quality products and services that meet or exceed the expectations of our customers and applicable regulatory requirements. Our commitment to quality is demonstrated by our leadership in the nuclear industry. Since the 1950s, our products have met the stringent quality standards for nuclear processes used in several countries.

Zero emissions

By improving our operations and providing superior products and services to our customers, we strive to eliminate unnecessary air emissions, increase energy efficiency, conserve water, and stop solid waste generation.
