## Frequently asked questions

### What international quality and environmental management systems govern Kae Hwa's manufacturing?

Kae Hwa's manufacturing operates under ISO 9001 for quality management, enforcing rigorous inspection from resin compounding through film extrusion and lamination at its Taiwan and Malaysia facilities, and ISO 14001 for environmental management, supported by ISO 14064-1 carbon footprint measurement and reduction. On top of these certifications, the company's proprietary Total Quality Control (TQC) framework, in place since 2006, integrates the entire production flow to eliminate defects and ensure reliable performance for medical, industrial, and outdoor applications.

### How does Kae Hwa's Total Quality Control (TQC) framework go beyond ISO certification alone?

ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certify that quality and environmental systems meet international standards, but Kae Hwa's proprietary TQC framework, in place since 2006, integrates inspection across the entire production flow — from resin compounding to film extrusion and lamination — to catch defects earlier than certification audits alone would require.
