Ambion製品の品質 (topへ)

Ambion strives to exceed external and internal customer expectations by delivering the highest quality products, service, information and image by continuously putting ourselves in the position of the customer to assess the impression we leave.

In support of our commitment to providing the highest quality products, information and services, Ambion has obtained ISO 9001:2000 registration. The achievement of ISO 9001 registration assures that quality systems and procedures have been developed and implemented in product design, production and support operations. ISO 9000 certification is a strategic milestone in our ongoing efforts to effectively support customers in the research and rapidly emerging molecular diagnostics markets.

Join Us in Helping to Protect Our Environment (back to top)
Ambion is concerned about protecting our environment and looks at the total operation of the company for opportunities to recycle, decrease waste, and incorporate post consumer materials.

Ambion Is a Green Energy Supporter
Ambion became a business partner of the City of Austin's Green Energy Program, GreenChoice, in March of 2001. This program allows us to choose our electricity from renewable sources developed here in Austin. These resources include wind turbines and landfill methane gas projects located around the state. As a partner of GreenChoice, Ambion is making a simple and inexpensive ongoing contribution to preserve and enhance Austin's quality of life while securing a hedge against fossil fuel costs.

Recently, the City of Austin featured Ambion in one of their ads for GreenChoice in the "Austin Business Journal" and the local daily newspaper, "The Austin American Statesman". Click here to see the ad.

Recycling, Decreasing Waste, and Incorporating Recycled Materials
In the laboratory we recycle pipette tip boxes, the silver used in our developing processes, and the oil used in vacuum pumps and centrifuges. Hazardous waste is reduced by sharing hazardous materials and ordering only the amount of chemicals needed for immediate use.

In the office we reuse the reverse sides of paper for rough drafts, and routinely recycle toner cartridges, paper, aluminum, glass, Styrofoam and plastic bags. We print our advertising materials and catalogs on recycled paper, and incorporate recycled paper in our office usage.

We continually improve our product packaging. Our kit boxes are now all recycled cardboard. Recently we have started eliminating the foam kit box liner and replacing it with a recycled cardboard liner as well.

Our shipping department uses recycled packing boxes whenever possible and packs in our own shredded paper and foam peanuts received from incoming shipments. We have instituted a successful recycling program for the outer Styrofoam shipping container. These containers are returned to us and are reused as many as 3 to 4 times. (Please excuse their appearance!) Our shipping manager says this system is so self-sustaining that he rarely has to purchase shipping materials.

Please let us know if you have any suggestions or comments on our programs.
