Anywaves Renews Its EN9100 Certification: A Testament to Excellence in Space Antenna Manufacturing

We are thrilled to announce that Anywaves has successfully renewed its EN9100 certification, an achievement that underscores our ongoing commitment to delivering the highest quality space antennas to our global partners. This renewal, officially granted on December 02, 2024, confirms that our quality management system continues to meet the rigorous standards demanded by the aerospace and defense industries.

What is EN9100 Certification?

EN9100, also known as AS9100 in the United States and JISQ9100 in Japan, is the internationally recognized quality management standard specifically designed for the aerospace industry. It is based on the well-known ISO 9001 standard but extends its requirements to meet the unique needs of aerospace manufacturers, suppliers, and service providers. The certification encompasses everything from product safety, traceability, and risk management to customer satisfaction and continuous improvement.

Developed by the International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG), EN9100 is widely adopted by major aerospace organizations, including ESA, NASA, Boeing, Airbus, and Thales. It ensures that certified companies have robust processes in place to design, produce, and deliver products that meet the strictest quality standards required for space missions.

Why EN9100 Certification Matters

In the aerospace industry, the margin for error is practically zero. Space missions depend on components that function reliably under extreme conditions, and Anywaves’ antennas are no exception. Our products are critical for satellite missions involving telecommunications, Earth observation, navigation, and exploration. A single malfunction can compromise an entire mission, making quality assurance a non-negotiable priority.

The renewal of our EN9100 certification guarantees that:

1. Our Processes are Controlled and Reliable: From design to production, every step is meticulously managed, ensuring consistency and reliability in our antennas.
2. Risk is Minimized: EN9100 emphasizes risk assessment and mitigation, ensuring that potential issues are identified and resolved before they become problems.
3. Continuous Improvement is Embedded in Our Culture: The standard requires regular reviews and improvements, fostering a culture where quality and innovation are continuously refined.
4. Customer Satisfaction is Central: By adhering to EN9100 requirements, we ensure that we not only meet but exceed customer expectations, delivering products that our clients can trust.

A Mark of Pride for the Anywaves Team

Achieving and maintaining EN9100 certification requires rigorous audits, documentation, and a company-wide commitment to excellence. At Anywaves, quality is not just a goal; it is embedded in our DNA.

We take immense pride in the fact that our antennas, designed and produced in Toulouse, are trusted by international space players to perform reliably in orbit. This renewal reflects our ability to consistently deliver on our promises, and it solidifies our position as a leading manufacturer of high-performance space antennas.

What This Means for Our Clients and Partners

For our clients and partners, this certification renewal reaffirms that Anywaves remains a reliable, forward-thinking partner committed to the highest standards of quality and safety. It means continued confidence in our products and processes, knowing that every antenna we deliver has been designed, tested, and manufactured under stringent aerospace quality controls.

We believe that quality is the foundation of successful space missions, and we are honored to contribute to the future of space exploration and satellite technology with products that stand up to the toughest conditions.

Looking Forward

As we celebrate this milestone, we remain committed to pushing the boundaries of innovation and quality. The renewal of our EN9100 certification is a stepping stone toward even greater achievements, and we look forward to supporting more missions with antennas that enable connectivity, observation, and exploration beyond our planet.
