The new version of the standard was developed to harmonize with the EU Medical Device Directives 90/385/EEC, 93/42/EEC and 98/79/EC.
Absolute EMS specializes in medical board layout and design and can turn your design description into a workable prototype. The company provides manufacturing services to OEs and medical engineering firms that need the highest levels of product quality and traceability in component certification.
In addition to its ISO 13485 certification, Absolute EMS is ISO 9001: 2015 and AS9100D certified. The company continues to take the necessary steps to improve the quality of its products and services and to enhance customer satisfaction. The company manages, controls and audits its own processes, in addition to having outside certification bodies verifying that its QMS meet requirements.
Absolute EMS is a leader in end-to-end electronic manufacturing services solutions that help its customers rapidly introduce innovative new technology by facilitating speed-to-market in their marketplace.
