Quality, traceability and industrial rigour are essential when technologies are designed for critical applications.

Across its activities, Exens relies on recognised quality management systems, industrial certifications and aerospace and space qualifications supporting the design, development, manufacture and testing of advanced RF, microwave, time-frequency and embedded technologies.

Quality management systems

Structured processes for demanding technologies

Exens applies recognised quality and environmental management standards across several areas of activity.

These systems support the design, production, testing, commercialisation and distribution of RF and microwave components and equipment, as well as the development and manufacture of time-frequency products and embedded electronic systems.

They provide a structured framework for maintaining quality, consistency and continuous improvement throughout industrial operations.

ISO & aerospace certifications

Top-tier certifications

ISO 9001:2015

Relevant Exens activities are certified according to ISO 9001:2015 quality management standards.

These certifications support activities including the design, production, testing, commercialisation and distribution of RF and microwave components and equipment.

ISO 14001:2015

Relevant RF and microwave activities also operate according to ISO 14001:2015 environmental management requirements.

This certification supports the Group’s commitment to structured environmental management within its industrial activities.

EN 9100:2016

Relevant Exens activities are certified according to EN 9100:2016 aerospace quality standards.

These activities include the study, development, manufacture and sale of time-frequency products such as quartz resonators, oscillators, piezoelectric filters and time-frequency systems.

EN 9100:2016 also applies to relevant activities involving the design and manufacture of mechanical, electronic and RF embedded equipment and systems for defense, aeronautics, transport and weather applications.
