3C Catene: certified quality and values

Certifications are key strategic tools today to meet the increasingly stringent requirements of the metalworking industry. In particular, they make it possible to explore new markets with an edge over competitors.

"True 'Quality' is not made by the brand, but by the people!"
Since March 2000, 3C Catene has had a UNI EN ISO 9001:2015 certified quality management system. The certification, recognized worldwide, allows the company not only to keep process standards under control, but also to go beyond the simple customer-supplier relationship with the goal of mutual benefit and growth. This translates into a number of guarantees for customers, including:

• compliance with stated or agreed specifications and tolerances;
• consistent product quality from the first to the last chain;
• full compliance with deadlines and general supply conditions;
• considerably fewer errors and misunderstandings.

The introduction of a certified quality management system promotes an efficient and flexible organization, in which each collaborator (internal and external) plays an active and central role. For 3C Catene, a certification is not just an award, but a true professional style, to employ constantly in all activities.

"We believe and want to live in a better, cleaner and more sustainable world."
The UNI EN ISO 14001:2015 certification, obtained in April 2020, instead attests to 3C Catene's commitment to eco-sustainability. All processes have a very low environmental impact, without compromising maximum productivity. Each year, the company manufactures about 8 million mt. of chain using only 2,400 m3 of gas for heating, 209,000 KWh of electricity, 225 m3 of water, 220 lt of oils and producing only 1,100 kg of waste.

Based in Lecco, the heart of wire processing in Italy, 3C Catene is the leading national manufacturer of small welded chains, in diameters from ø1.30 to ø3.90 mm in iron and stainless steel. More than 45 years of experience and a daily production of 35,000 mt of chains, make 3C Catene the ideal partner for all your needs.
