Our vision, “Creating products that make buildings better” is one that we take very seriously. We make products that help form life spaces in which people work, learn and receive healthcare. The makeup of the products, the process by which they are made, and our behaviours are all led by our vision.

Quality at CS – Quality excellence is something every company strives for, almost all assert, but few can substantiate their claims to customers and prospective clients. Here at Construction Specialties Australia, our commitment to superior management systems is paramount. We achieved recognition of our international quality standard in 1997 and have been quality evangelists ever since.
ISO 9001 is the benchmark measure of a company’s quality management systems, with more than 1 million companies worldwide holding accreditation. We are proud to have been certified to the ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management Standard.
Whilst many companies possess ISO 9001:2015 certification, the main point of difference is how they adopt and implement quality principles within their businesses to meet the ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management Standard.
Our quality management standards are based on our core commitment to:
- Our customers: every client and project is different. We genuinely want to work with our customers in the most efficient way and deliver the right products on time, every time
- Quality products: as market leaders in the supply of specialty architectural building products we are committed to working with our clients to provide unique solutions to complex building problems and supply products of the highest quality standards
