Powerstax – Company awarded ISO 9001 on recently combined manufacturing facility

Powerstax has been awarded ISO 9001 on its recently combined manufacturing facility in Wickford, Essex. The long-term home to the ‘Drake’ brand of power conversion products now also houses production of the Powerstax range of ultra-high efficiency DC-DC converters and front-ends and value-added system assembly. After due process the complete facility is now ISO 9001 approved. The company acquired Drake power products and their manufacturing facility in in 2012 and the recent relocation of the manufacturing completes the planned restructuring of the company to manufacture and support all products from this one facility. Tim Worley, CEO of Powerstax, comments, “When we acquired Drake we knew that eventually all of our manufacturing and support would be best served by being located under one roof. We have now realised this objective and expect that the efficiencies of scale and combining our engineering and commercial teams will bring added benefits to our customers, ensuring we offer them the best possible service from a single location. The same sales and engineering personnel will continue to support customers via our normal channels.”
