Alubend is a RISQS certified Supplier of Curved Aluminium

 

Alubend is certified to supply curved aluminium sections for the UK Rail industry.

Our high levels of quality management and careful attention to detail allow us to provide high quality aluminium bending to specialty markets, including the UK Rail industry.

We have been certified by the RISQS (Railway Industry Supplier Qualification Scheme) to provide highly specialised aluminium section bending services to suppliers throughout the rail industry.

What is RISQS?

 

As stated on their website:

In short we help suppliers sell in to the GB rail industry by providing an open, fair and transparent way for them to be formally recognised as capable providers of products and services.

This means we support Network Rail, Transport for London, passenger and freight operating companies, rolling stock organisations, main infrastructure contractors and many other buying organisations in the management of supply chain risk.

The scheme embraces rail’s qualification arrangements. RISQS is industry-owned and governed, sponsored by a committee of representatives from across the rail industry. This reports into the RSSB Board, and RSSB provides a range of services to support operational delivery of the scheme.
