QuantumClean's Washington and California Advanced Technology Cleaning Centers® (ATCC®) Earn ISO 9001:2000 Certification
DUBLIN, Pa ---April 20, 2007---QuantumClean®, the leading provider of outsourced parts cleaning and refurbishment for the semiconductor industry, recently announced the ISO certification of its Advanced Technology Cleaning Centers® in Washougal, Wash., that serves the Pacific Northwest, and San Jose, Calif., that supports the Silicon Valley.
The Washington and California sites are the latest QuantumClean locations to receive ISO 9001:2000 certification. QuantumClean has actively pursued ISO certification for all of its U.S. sites, and these two plants were the last remaining sites to earn ISO certification. The Pacific Northwest ATCC® received ISO 9001:2000 certification March 12, and the Silicon Valley ATCC® received certification March 27. QuantumClean acquired these locations from Saint-Gobain in April 2006, consistent with its strategy to be the only outsourced parts cleaning provider with service centers in every major semiconductor market in the U.S.

QuantumClean's ISO certification provides assurance that business is operating as planned and that problems are being addressed effectively. The standard and proscribed processes required for ISO certification provide better consistency in performance and keep the company focused on the established business objectives to drive increased customer satisfaction. The certification also offers an independent ongoing compliance review of business operations, bolstering QuantumClean's own continual improvement procedures.
ISO 9001:2000, an international quality management system standard, aids in the operation of QuantumClean's business by meeting internal and customer requirements, requiring continual improvement, increasing top management involvement and maintaining enhanced customer satisfaction as the company's top goal.
