Key Achievements in 2025
Quality Excellence
We achieved a 100% inspection pass rate in Q4 2025 — meaning every single part shipped in the final quarter of the year met or exceeded customer specifications. This was made possible by:
- Upgraded in-line vision inspection systems on all major production lines
- Enhanced statistical process control (SPC) with real-time monitoring
- Additional quality training for all production staff
- Implementation of full traceability for every production batch
Market Expansion
We entered four new export markets in 2025, bringing our total to 32 countries served:
- South America — expanded presence in Brazil and Argentina
- Southeast Asia — new customers in Vietnam and Thailand
- Eastern Europe — strengthened partnerships in Poland and Czech Republic
- Middle East — new distribution agreements in UAE and Saudi Arabia
Product Range Growth
We expanded our product catalog with five new nut subcategories, bringing our total product categories to 20:
- Hex Nuts (DIN 933/934, M6-M36)
- Flange Nuts (DIN 6923, M6-M20)
- Nylon Insert Nuts (DIN 982/ISO 7040, M4-M24)
- Wheel Nuts (Grade 10.9/12.9, M18-M27)
- Slotted Nuts (DIN 935/ISO 7035, M6-M36)
All new products are available with full OEM cross-reference numbers and are produced under our IATF 16949 certified quality system.
