BTE Groep

Quality is the result of a healthy, well-run organisation

In our opinion, quality is the result of a healthy, well-run organisation where it is pleasant to work, and where we continue to examine how we can improve The product experience, collaboration and communication between employees play an important role. That is why we are constantly improving the quality of our services and prefab concrete products.

Certification

At BTE, we see certification as a form of quality assessment, externally by an independent body and based on clear standards or requirements. That is why we have various system and product certifications at BTE. Certification is not an end in itself for us, but we use it as a means to guarantee quality and sustainability.

Sustainable production with CSC

All BTE locations are CSC certified. The CSC quality mark guarantees the sustainable production of concrete. Companies are only allowed to use this quality mark if they meet strict requirements concerning reliability, expertise, sustainability and occupational safety. The CSC quality mark provides assurance that the concrete has been made sustainably.

Insight with the CO2 Performance Ladder

KOMO

All BTE companies together have more than 50 KOMO product certificates; each KOMO product certificate declares that the product concerned (raw materials, auxiliary materials, construction products), construction element or construction system corresponds to the technical specification included in the certificate and meets the requirements stated in the certificate and/or assessment guideline.

More social entrepreneurship with the PSO

BTE has achieved step 1 of the Social Entrepreneurship Performance Ladder (in Dutch Prestatieladder Socialer Ondernemen or PSO). This includes all BTE locations. BTE is one of the few concrete factories that has achieved this step. We really stand out in that regard. The PSO is a scientifically substantiated measurement and registration instrument and a quality mark of TNO that provides insight into the extent to which organisations do more than average socially, aimed at the labour participation of vulnerable groups in the labour market; social return on investment (SROI).

We feel responsible for SROI - everyone counts! In addition to our convictions, our desire to have our policy tested and formalised and to start the PSO certification process was also based on government tenders. SROI comes into play as an obligation, especially for assignments outsourced by the government. As a contractor, you must demonstrate that you invest in your social contribution. Getting certified demonstrates your social investment.
