In the kitchen appliance industry, product quality comes not only from technology but also from a tightly controlled manufacturing process. That is why the ISO 9001:2015 certification has become one of the most important guarantees, and Kocher is proud to hold this certification.
What is ISO 9001:2015, who issues it, and what does it prove?
ISO 9001:2015 is the international standard for Quality Management System, issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). This is the latest version of the ISO 9001 standard, widely applied in over 170 countries and regarded as the “common language” of quality worldwide.
The company’s certificate is issued by the Institute for Research and Development of Quality Standards (ISSQ) — a reputable certification organization operating under the recognition of the International Accreditation Forum (IAF). This means that the certification is not self-declared but is evaluated and periodically monitored by an independent third party.
So what does ISO 9001:2015 prove? When a company achieves this certification, it affirms that the entire process — from design, material selection, production, assembly to output inspection — is operated according to a standardized, consistent, and traceable system. Each product that reaches the consumer undergoes the same quality control steps, minimizing errors and ensuring stability. In other words, this is evidence of the manufacturer’s commitment to “doing it right from the start.”
When did Kocher achieve certification and what benefits does it bring to the products?
Kocher’s production system (TEKO Vietnam Joint Stock Company) has officially been granted ISO 9001:2015 certification, effective from April 22, 2024, to April 22, 2027. The manufacturing plant is located in Dong Bai village, Hoa Son commune, Luong Son district, Hoa Binh province — where the quality management process is applied according to international standards.
Holding this certification brings many practical values to consumers. First, the durability and stability of the products are enhanced, as each device is rigorously tested before leaving the factory. Second, the error rate significantly decreases, giving users more peace of mind throughout the usage process. Third, the quality management system that meets standards is also the foundation for Kocher to continuously improve and apply new technologies.
It is the combination of the ISO-standardized manufacturing process and modern technical foundation that has helped Kocher induction hobs pioneer German technology in the Vietnamese market, providing users with products that are safe, durable, and feature-rich. For customers, the ISO 9001:2015 certification is not just a piece of paper on the wall, but a clear commitment to quality that the brand prioritizes.
