We are proud to be a BFPA Approved Distributor and ‘Q’ Approved for hydraulic hose assemblies – an assurance of the highest standards in fluid power safety and quality.

What Does This Mean for You?

Choosing a ‘Q’ Approved supplier like Rotec Hydraulics over non-accredited providers delivers critical benefits for your operation:

  • Guaranteed Safety and Reliability: Our accreditation assures you that every hose assembly is built to an industry-agreed, rigorously audited standard. This significantly reduces the risk of hose failure, injury, and dangerous fluid injection.

 

  • Highly Trained & Certified Technicians: All our hose technicians are trained and certified to the BFPA industry standard, ensuring a professional understanding of hose technology and best practice assembly techniques.

 

  • Eliminating Dangerous Practices: We are strictly audited to never partake in hazardous practices such as:

    • Mixing and Matching components from different manufacturers, which can compromise the integrity and safety of the assembly.

    • Re-ending used hose assemblies, a false economy that dramatically increases the risk of failure.

 

  • Reduced Downtime and Increased Efficiency: Quality products and expert assembly mean less unexpected failure, less downtime for your machinery, and greater productivity for your business. The ‘Q’ stands for Quality, Efficiency, and Safety.

 

  • Commitment to Best Practice: Our facilities, equipment (including swaging machines and test rigs), and stock management are subject to detailed bi-annual technical audits by the BFPA. This ensures continuous adherence to the highest operational standards.

Don’t compromise on safety and quality. Partner with Rotec Hydraulics for your hydraulic hose assembly needs and Choose ‘Q’ for Quality.

Rotec Hydraulics Achieves Continued SafeContractor Accreditation

Rotec Hydraulics, a leading provider of hydraulic solutions, is pleased to announce the successful renewal of its SafeContractor Approved accreditation. This achievement underscores the company’s unwavering commitment to maintaining the highest standards of health and safety across all its operations.

SafeContractor is a respected third-party accreditation scheme that recognises rigorous health and safety management. By achieving and maintaining this accreditation, Rotec demonstrates its dedication to providing a safe working environment for its employees, clients and partners.

This successful renewal confirms that the company continues to meet and exceed the stringent requirements of the SafeContractor scheme.

“We are delighted to have renewed our SafeContractor accreditation,”

Following an in-person audit from Achilles last month, Rotec are delighted to reveal they have once again received a perfect 100% score once again.

Achilles assesses the company’s Health & Safety, Environmental and Quality policies and procedures.

By scoring a perfect 100% across all areas, the accreditation reassures clients that Rotec are committed to the very highest of standards, as independently verified by Achilles.

Managing Director of Rotec Hydraulics Ltd, Paul Prouse said,

Rotec achieves ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certification

Rotec Hydraulics Ltd was recently awarded ISO 9001 and 14001 certifications in recognition of their quality and environmental management systems.

The company management systems that Rotec have in place were audited against a range of criteria by NQA, a leading global independently accredited certification body, providing assessments (audits) of organisations to various management system standards since 1988.

“Achieving the ISO 9001 and 14001 Standards demonstrates our commitment to going above and beyond for quality and detail in all our products and services,” comments Josie Chamberlain, Rotec’s Quality Systems Manager.

ISO 9001 provides a framework and set of principles that ensure a common-sense approach to the management of an organisation to consistently satisfy customers and other stakeholders. In simple terms, it provides the basis for effective processes and effective people to deliver an effective product or service time after time.

ISO 14001 is the international standard for environmental management systems (EMS) and the most widely used EMS in the world, with over 14,000 organisations certified in the UK and over 250,000 certificates issued globally. ISO 14001 is the principal management system standard which specifies the requirements for the formulation and maintenance of an EMS. This helps to control your environmental aspects, reduce impacts and ensure legal compliance.
