02 Fire Safety Audit
Conformity to fire safety standards continues to be a major issue throughout the manufacturing industry.
Fire prevention is not simply fulfilling the local fire safety regulations. It also includes an assessment of management systems, fire risk , worker awareness and engagement - all of which are checked during a fire safety audit. Our audit team will conduct onsite assessments to evaluate the current fire safety condition of your factory.

ASTRA adopts the concept of ISO 9000 and has developed a comprehensive quality audit checklist for textiles and hardgoods respectively.
Our audits provide insights into a factory’s quality planning, quality control, quality assurance and quality improvement. The criteria given on the right are assessed for all divisions concerned with production in a factory. We evaluate a number of criteria – please refer to the listing on the right. Our experienced ASTRA auditors will record all findings, both best practice and non-compliance (NC), in an electronic audit report that helps you understand in detail how your factory manages quality throughout the production process.
