Quality

Creating the Quality Standard, Every Day

In our continued effort to meet or exceed the quality and performance standards requested by our customers, established global regulations and institutions such as SAE, ASTM, Grote became the first manufacturer in our industry to receive ISO/TS16949 certification in 2003. We have now integrated and transitioned our business management systems to receive ISO/IATF 16949 1st edition certification in 2018. Second, only to Safety, Quality is our priority and our ultimate goal is to achieve zero failures for every shipment.

With global design and manufacturing operations, Grote utilizes Advanced Product Quality Planning, and the customer’s specific requirements in all aspects of planning our new product launches in both product and process design. This concept leverages our resources to provide products and services that meet or exceed our customer expectations.

Through our subsidiary, Grote Electronics, we have a great advantage in integration of our designs and pcb board designs, leading to our vision of being the preeminent business partner for innovative visibility solutions.

Through the use of these tools, the Grote team concentrates on preventing issues, not just on correcting issues, thus minimizing the risk to our customers, and the consumers of our products. Because when it comes to our products, we’ll deliver exactly what you need – every time, in alignment with the Grote vision, mission, and values.

Conflict Mineral statement

Grote Industries LLC. is deeply concerned with and dedicated to being a responsible corporate citizen. We are particularly concerned that the “Conflict Minerals” (tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold) produced in and around the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) may be funding armed groups engaged in serious human rights violations and environmental destruction. It is our position that Grote Industries will take any reasonable action to ensure our supply chain does not utilize minerals extracted from this region of conflict. To meet our goal, we will work with our suppliers to document the sources of any of these minerals that are utilized in our products. We will openly share this information and documentation with our customers. Through this concerted action, we will ensure to our end users that the products they purchase are being produced in an ethical and responsible manner.
