Prent cuts the trail to ISO certification

Janesville, WI-based Prent Corp. was the first North American thermoforming processor to receive ISO 9000 registration. The certification aims to set minimum quality standards for manufacturers. Rexham Container's Union, MO, facility received ISO 9002 two months after Prent was certified. Several US thermoforming processors are determined to institute total quality management and gain ISO 9000 registration. Some of these companies preparing for ISO 9000 are C.W.
