Matric Limited Acquires AS 9100 Certification Matric Limited, located in Seneca, Pa., is a model of excellence for Electronic Manufacturing Service Providers and is the regional leader in technology, equipment and quality. In September, 2009, Matric was audited for AS 9100 registration (the international standard for Aerospace manufacturing). Bureau Veritas, the world’s leading certification body, awarded full certification to Matric on January 14, 2010.
Based on the ISO 9000 requirements, AS 9100 utilizes most of the processes and procedures that were already well-entrenched into the everyday operations at Matric, so adapting to the stricter standards required little change. Matric acquired the original ISO 9001 certification in 1996.
