Logiventures receives ISO 9001:2008 Certification
Logiventures, has become the first local company in the Portable Cabin industry to obtain the internationally recognised ISO 9001:2008 certification for Quality Management Systems.
The certification by the prestigious UK headquartered Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance Ltd. (LRQA) will enable further expansion into quality conscious foreign markets. At present Logiventures accounts for 80 per cent of the local Portable Cabin market and exports its Convertainer cabins to India, Maldives, Thailand and Africa.
The areas covered by the certification include fabrication of Convertainers to customer requirements, rigging of containers for carriage of garments and liquids, maintenance, repair and resale of freight containers and sale of security seals and holograms, at the Logiventures complex at Welisara.
The certification followed stringent audits by a team of lead auditors from LRQA India.
“Since our Convertainers most often accommodate people in site offices, workshops, sanitary units and similar applications, quality management systems pertaining to the conversion process are particularly important,” said Mr. Janitha Jayanetti, General Manager of Logiventures (Pvt) Ltd.
He said the company expects an increase in local demand as a result of the impending construction boom in the country. The receipt of ISO 9001:2008 certification was therefore timely and would increase the competitiveness of the company’s product offering, Mr. Jayanetti added.
Logiventures has to date custom-designed, fabricated, decorated, equipped, furnished and delivered more than 1,000 convertainers for use in Sri Lanka and overseas as accommodation units, medical facilities, multiple shower and toilet units, dormitories, product display units, restaurants, and in one unique instance as a fully equipped bank branch in Nelliady, Jaffna.
