SHR approval screws Since 2010 STAFA Group’s screws for wood applications have been provided with the SHR approval. A number of producers and suppliers have decided not just to investigate the quality of the screws in their own laboratory, but also to determine the essential characteristics of the screws by an independent laboratory. The quality methods of these companies must guarantee a delivery of constant quality. By means of yearly random testing this quality is being monitored. SHR, as an independent laboratory, carries out these kinds of investigations in their own laboratory. The SHR approval can be carried by a certain product if SHR has determined that the achievements claimed by the producer or supplier are in fact obtained. The characteristics that are being analysed are: resistance to tensile stress, screwing-in resistance, screwing-in torque and bending test.
“Quality is what the STAFA Group stands for, and this is something we aim at in all possible ways. For the organisation, for our people, as well as for our products and services.”
