R&D

Nabel boasts not only advanced research equipment including specialized test grinding machine, press, kiln, polishing machine to emulate whole production process, but also advanced analysis and inspection equipment (e.g. chromatic aberration instrument, multi-element analyzer, COE expansion instrument etc.), which provides guarantee for high-quality products. At the same time, the on-line application of the precise instrument for measuring chemical composition and microstructure ensures company strong ability of technical renovation and fast product upgrade.
In respect of the equipment structure, Nabel still adopts world most advanced desktop color processing system. Currently it has Apple Mac G4 G5 computer cluster, high-precise specialized image film studio and SLR camera for outdoor shooting, large-breadth color ink jet instrument and color scanner. In aspects of screen plate, the company owns several Taiwan-made exposure machines of large breadth and peripheral equipment. The advanced equipment is strong backup for fast treatment of design schemes and the strongest guarantee for quality of Nabel ceramic products.

Nabel attaches great importance to product quality and has realized perfect combination of interior quality and exterior quality through strict quality control. It has adopted EU product standard in its early production quality control so as to make its products be more in line with international standard. For example, glaze quality is a key item in glazed tile production. According to China national standard, the test shall be done at a temperature of 150C under a pressure of 0.5 Mpa and cycle once, but we do it as per our internal control standard in accordance with EU standard, I.e. at a temperature of 180C under a pressure of 1.0 Mpa, with seven times of cycles. Only when a product qualified for the test for seven times, can it leave the factory. If it fails to satisfy the test standard even once, it will be rejected. Therefore you may have much trust in Nabel.

Nabel has an outstanding quality assurance system which control all factors that may influence product quality including technology, management, staff members, process, etc. It has set up a complete scientific and effective quality control document system. From quality policy to quality manual, quality procedure documents and quality records, all quality control activities are done according to formal procedures. During the whole process, it will make examinations and assessments on the internal quality system and management system regularly and take effective prevention and correction measures to perfect the system. Besides specialized inspectors, it also appoints on-line workers at each step as concurrent inspector. The whole quality process is thus guaranteed through on-line workers'regular inspection, selectors' complete inspection of appearance and quality control personnel??s random inspection as per the strict inspection parameters.

Professional quality management allows us to organize production as per our internal standards which are more rigid than EC product standards and Chinese national standard. Nabel not only smoothly passed ISO9002: 1994 quality system certification conducted by China CQM Zhejiang Examination Center, but won ISO14001:1996 environmental management system certification and ISO9001:2000 quality management system certification by China CQM. At the same time, China CQM speaks highly of Nabel, regarding it as a typical enterprise which runs quality system very effectively.
