Creation Technologies Receives Ninth ISO 13485 Certification

Creation Technologies today announced that its Silicon Valley facility has received ISO 13485 certification. Creation – Santa Clara becomes the ninth Creation business unit to achieve certification under this quality management system for medical devices, as the company continues its successful partnerships with OEMs in the medical industry.

“Achieving the ISO 13485 certification validates our efforts to live Creation’s purpose of enriching lives,” said Creation’s President & CEO, Arthur Tymos. “It also demonstrates Creation’s strong team and robust customer and quality-focused operations, as we strive to exceed regulatory requirements for all of our customers in the medical community. This commitment to excellence is what drives our continued success in all of the markets we serve.”

The ISO 13485 certification is a quality management system for the design, development, production, and installation of medical devices. In order to attain certification, a company must demonstrate evidence of compliance with strict processes including solid management commitment and highly effective production and quality controls.

Other Creation locations with ISO 13485 certification include facilities in BC and Ontario, Canada, and Texas, Kentucky, Wisconsin, and Minnesota in the USA. Creation’s sites in Chicago, USA and Changzhou, China, expect to receive certification later this year.
