Certifications

Trust is good – but proof that we satisfy every requirement of our clients and the public authorities when transporting, storing and handling the goods entrusted to us is even better.

TALKE was keen from the very beginning to be audited according to the ISO 9001 standard, as well as the European Chemical Industry Council’s (CEFIC) own Safety and Quality Assessment System (SQAS). In 2005, we were the first German company to undergo an SQAS Packaged Warehouse audit, specifically designed to evaluate the warehousing activities of logistics service providers for the chemical industry. In addition, our services and processes are regularly inspected by means of key performance indicators (KPI), as well as our own internal quality management system designed in line with DIN EN ISO 9001:2015.

In an effort to provide greater transparency, we have also launched our Corporate ISO project. Under this project, we aim to standardise all quality and certification processes throughout the entire company. Furthermore, we are gradually replacing regional certifications with company-wide certifications where possible. For instance, the certifications for our sites in Germany and Qatar were merged under the TALKE Group’s new corporate certification. In latest audits, additional locations will be selected for evaluation at random alongside our head office in Hürth, which is assessed as part of every audit.
