For mission-critical applications, there’s one factor you need to rely on: the quality of your fasteners and components. No matter what your industry, the consequence of faulty or poorly manufactured components can be catastrophic, which is why it is essential to choose a fastener supplier you can trust. 

 

Enter Wulfrun. 

 

Central to our success as one of the key players in the fastener industry is our many accreditations, which underscore our dedication to producing the highest quality fasteners on the market. 

 

In this blog, we’ll run through the importance of each of the accreditations Wulfrun holds and how they benefit your industry. 

 

Norsok Standard 

The Norsok Standard certification is a hallmark of quality that signifies our commitment to adhering to stringent industry benchmarks. This accreditation ensures that fasteners meet the highest standard of safety, reliability, and performance. 

 

In industries such as offshore oil and gas, extreme conditions and critical operations are the norm. Norsok accreditation provides the confidence that Wulfrun’s fasteners can withstand the harshest environments and deliver optimal performance, minimising risk and ensuring operational continuity. 

 

API accreditations 

At Wulfrun, we possess multiple API accreditations, including API 20E, API 20F and API Q1, which are essential to catering to the unique requirements of the energy sector. 

 

The API 20E certification, with its various BSL levels, assures clients that our fasteners are engineered to maintain integrity even in corrosive and high-pressure environments. 

 

Similarly, our API Q1 accreditation highlights our capabilities for stringent quality management practices, placing us as a favourite for businesses in the oil and gas industry. 

 

ISO 9001:2015

The ISO9001:2015 certification is a globally recognised accreditation for the dedication to quality management, proving our ability to consistently provide high-quality products and services, while continuously improving our process. 

 

In industries spanning from aerospace to automotive, ISO 9001:2015 certification instils confidence that fasteners are manufactured with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring reliability and consistency. 

 

TUV NORD and PED

TUV NORD AD 2000-Merkblatt W 0 and Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU accreditations hold particular significance for European projects. The TUV NORD AD 2000-Merkblatt W 0 certification attests to the compliance of Wulfrun’s fasteners with stringent European standards, positioning us as a trusted partner in industries such as chemical processing and power generation. 

 

Equally, the Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU certification demonstrates our capability to produce fasteners that meet the legal and safety requirements governing pressure equipment across the European Union.
