At Kettenbach, total quality management is not a marketing catch phrase, but rather our everyday practice. Consistent high production quality is monitored and ensured by in-house quality control.
Our in-house R&D Department consistently promotes the steady optimization of the product portfolio. Production takes place in in-house facilities, also at the German location: We live the maxim "Made in Germany."
We also enjoy the highest levels of international acclaim, a level at which our products have been tested and proven. The US health authority, the Federal Drug Administration (FDA), recently completed a detailed inspection of our products.
