Quality

Quality Assurance

At Stainless Solutions, quality assurance isn’t just a requirement-it’s our standard. We are proud to adhere to the stringent Bioprocessing Equipment (BPE) standards, ensuring every product we deliver meets the highest levels of precision, cleanliness, and reliability for critical industries like biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and food processing.

Our BPE-compliant processes are designed to meet or exceed the most rigorous industry requirements for:

  • Material Compliance: We use approved, high-quality materials that meet BPE specifications, ensuring chemical resistance and long-term durability.
  • Dimensional Accuracy: Every part we produce is precision-engineered to exacting tolerances, ensuring perfect fit and optimal performance.
  • Surface Finishing: We provide superior surface finishes to minimize bacterial adherence
    and enhance cleanability.
  • Documentation & Traceability: Comprehensive documentation, including material test reports (MTRs), inspection records, and validation protocols, ensures full traceability from raw material to final product.

Quality welding is critical to the integrity and performance of bioprocessing systems. That’s why we employ an in-house Certified Weld Inspector (CWI) accredited by the American Welding Society (AWS). Our CWI ensures:

  • Code Compliance: All welds comply with ASME BPE, ASME Section IX, and AWS D18.1 standards for hygienic tubing and fittings.
  • Visual & Non-Destructive Testing (NDT): Each weld undergoes rigorous visual inspection and, where necessary, NDT methods such as dye penetrant, radiographic, or ultrasonic testing.
  • Weld Documentation: Complete weld logs and inspection reports are provided to maintain accountability and traceability for every project.
  • Continuous Improvement: Our CWI collaborates with welders and fabricators to implement best practices, ensuring the highest quality and consistency across all projects.

Documentation

At Stainless Solutions, We understand the critical importance of accurate and complete documentation for high-purity and sanitary stainless steel projects. Our meticulous documentation process ensures full traceability and compliance with industry standards, giving you confidence in every weld, component, and finish.

Our standard documentation packages include:

  • Material Test Reports: Verifying the chemical and mechanical properties of materials to ensure compliance with project specifications.
  • Weld Logs: Detailed records of each weld, including welder qualifications, joint details, and inspection results.
  • Master Travelers: Comprehensive tracking of every fabrication stage, ensuring accountability and quality at each step,
  • Surface Finish Certifications: Confirming that surface roughness meets the required specifications for high-purity applications.
  • Electropolishing/Passivation Reports: Documentation of chemical treatments to enhance corrosion resistance and ensure cleanliness.
  • Drawings: Detailed fabrication and as-built drawings for accurate project reference and future maintenance.
These robust documentation packages are tailored to meet the stringent requirements of the food, beverage, pharmaceutical, biotech, and semiconductor industries, reflecting decades of expertise in high-purity stainless steel fabrication. Our goal is to deliver not only exceptional workmanship but also peace of mind through thorough and organized documentation.
 

Positive Material Identification

Stainless Solutions can provide expert Positive Material Identification (PMI) services that ensure the highest standards of material quality and compliance. PMI is a crucial process for identifying and verifying the composition of metals and alloys used in your operations. Using advanced technology, we deliver fast, accurate, and non-destructive analysis to confirm material integrity.

  • Accurate Composition Analysis: Using cutting-edge X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) technology, we accurately identify the exact composition of your metals and alloys in real-time.
  • Non-Destructive Testing: Our PMI testing is fast and non-invasive, preserving the integrity of your materials while delivering reliable results.
  • Versatile Applications: Whether you need to confirm materials during quality control, ensure regulatory compliance, or verify alloys in critical infrastructure, we can meet your needs across industries.
  • Cost Efficiency & Compliance: Our PMI services help avoid costly errors due to material mismatches, ensuring your operations stay within safety standards and project requirements.

Borescoping

Precision. Insight. Reliability.

At Stainless Solutions, our CWI (certified weld inspector) specializes in performing borescoped weld inspections to ensure the structural integrity and quality of welds. Using advanced visual inspection technology, we offer a non-destructive testing (NDT) solution to detect even the smallest imperfections in hard-to-reach areas.

  • Non-Destructive Testing: Thorough inspections without damaging the weld or surrounding materials.
  • High-Definition Imaging: Detailed visuals of internal welds, joints, and surfaces.
  • Access to Confined Spaces: Inspect areas that are difficult or impossible to reach with traditional inspection methods.
  • Early Detection of Defects: Identify cracks, porosity, inclusions, and other defects before they compromise safety and performance.
  1. Pre-Inspection Consultation: We assess your project’s requirements and tailor our services to your specific needs.
  2. Inspection: Our CWI uses state-of-the-art borescopes to inspect your welds with precision and efficiency.
  3. Detailed Reporting: Receive comprehensive inspection reports, including high-resolution images and recommendations for any necessary repairs.
  4. Post-Inspection Support: We work with you to address any findings and ensure your welds meet all applicable standards.
