We ship all over the world and have to keep
up with the latest regulations. This facility
packs and ships product via truck, cargo and
passenger air, and container shipments
for sea. This is a monumental task that
requires coordination and knowledge of
continuously changing global packaging and
documentation rules as well as health, saf
ety, and environmental policies.
With hundreds of line items
shipping daily, our processes
are tested and updated
periodically to insure
requirements are followed
accordingly. The facility is
ISO 9001:2008 and
AS9100 Rev B certified.
