Quality Control at Superfil is a way-of-life. No other activity commands importance that this activity does. Right from all inputs (raw materials, additives, spools, packing materials) to finished goods, all materials are subject to relevant, stringent quality inspection against international norms before being cleared for production, process or sale.

Apart from the above online quality-control both automated and manual, ensures maximum compliance. Given the nature of process and products produced, and the criticality of these products to the users, ‘no effort is considered too much’ in this direction.
