Ventec’s German Facility Successfully Passes ISO 9001:2015 Audit
August 15, 2018 | Ventec International GroupEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Ventec International Group’s Central European facility located in Kirchheimbolanden, Germany has successfully passed the audit for the ISO 9001:2015 quality management standard.
The nearly 3000sqm manufacturing, distribution and sales facility in Germany was first certified for ISO 9001:2015 back in 2016 joining Ventec's global network of manufacturing and service centers in Asia, Europe and the USA that all comply with the standard.
PCB fabrication customers can continue to rely on Ventec's fully accredited supply chain for high reliability laminates and prepregs. From manufacture through fabrication and delivery, Ventec's high-quality product portfolio of polyimides, high reliability FR4, its tec-speed range of high speed/low loss materials and the tec-thermal range of high performance IMS materials are all covered by the certification.
"ISO guidelines and quality certifications such as AS9100 Rev D, IATF 16949:2016 and IPC 4101 QPL are very important for Ventec," said Mark Goodwin, COO Europe & Americas. "Passing the audit at our German facility in Kirchheimbolanden is in line with our overall strategy to offer best services and quality materials to our clients across our global supply chain. ISO 9001 along with our other certifications recognizes that our team ensures consistent quality of our solutions."
Frank Lorentz, Production Manager at the German facility added: "The team in Kirchheimbolanden should take great pride in this accomplishment which reflects their hard work in implementing and practicing the highest levels of quality throughout our manufacturing processes, enabling our customers to engage Ventec as a strategic partner in their safety-critical supply chains, based on our commitment to managing delivered quality to the highest standards."

Driving Innovation: Selecting the Right Laser Source
04/28/2026 | Simon Khesin -- Column: Driving InnovationWhen I first joined Schmoll Maschinen, I brought experience from almost every PCB process, except for laser. As I immersed myself in laser processing, I realized why it can seem so daunting to a newcomer. The complexity arises from three intersecting factors: A vast variety of laser sources: CO2, UV-nano, green-pico, UV-pico, IR-pico, and others; a diverse range of applications: Drilling, cutting, ablation, and more; and an extensive list of materials: These have vastly different absorption rates. Choosing the right machine or laser source is rarely trivial. Even for experienced engineers, answering "Which source is best?" requires examining the business's specific goals.

Fresh PCB Concepts: Designing PCBs for Harsh Environments—Reliability Is Engineered Upstream
04/23/2026 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB ConceptsWhen engineers hear the phrase “harsh environment,” they usually think of the extreme temperature swings, vibration and shock, pressure changes, or radiation in aerospace. However, aerospace is not the only harsh environment where electronic assemblies must survive. Automotive power electronics, downhole oil and gas tools, marine controls, rail systems, defense platforms, and industrial automation equipment all expose PCBs to environments that are equally unforgiving. The stress mechanisms may differ, but the physics does not.
