Sk8parks International Now Included in ISO Certification
ISO Quality Certification Extended to Sk8parks International
Skatepark brand part of innovative product line offered from BCI Burke Company
BCI Burke, a Fond du Lac, Wisconsin based manufacturer of premium quality all-steel skate park modular equipment announces that the Sk8parks International product line is now included in the Organization for Standardization(ISO) Certification.
ISO is a network of standards recognized throughout the world that applies to businesses of all types in making the development, manufacturing and supply of products and services more efficient. The development of these standards provides assurance to consumers about products’ quality, safety and reliablility. Although ISO standards are voluntary, the fact that they are developed in response to consumer’s demand, and are based on consensus among the interested parties, ensures widespread applicability of the standards.
The BCI Burke Company achieved ISO 9001-2000 Certification in April of 2004 after a comprehensive week-long audit of company processes. The recent extension of the ISO certification to the Sk8park product line is the result of BCI Burke’s steadfast pledge to quality that has been followed since its inception by founder J.E. Burke in 1920.
“The ISO 9001 Certification is a confirmation of the commitment all of us at Burke make to ensure our ongoing focus on quality remains an integral part of our business plan. It provides a framework to enable us to continually raise the bar on our already high standards as we move forward. As a company, we have always focused on ways to improve our processes and demand continual improvement in all aspects of the business. This certification just formalizes what has been in practice,” says Tim Ahern, BCI Burke President and CEO.
BCI Burke, an industry leader in playground, park and recreation manufacturer in the country, announced it acquisition of the Sk8parks International brand earlier this year. The 23-year old skatepark brand with a reputation for premium quality 100% steel equipment, optimum safety, low maintenance and always providing the longest, strongest warranty available is one of the most trusted and respected skatepark brands on the market.
More than 130 different exciting skating and biking modular obstacles are available in endless configurations with low installation and maintenance costs, making this skatepark option a good value. The biggest distinction between Sk8parks International equipment and others on the market is the fact that it does not use any bolts or screws anywhere on the skating surface which eliminates hardware from loosening and reduces the chance for injury. Not only does that make riding on a Sk8parks International park safer, it means less maintenance is required by park owners.
All equipment is 100% steel that provides for optimal durability and maintenance-free construction. Riders will revel in the smoothest riding surface around as it is constructed from an exclusive Skateparks International C2P1S3TM formula preventing warping, cracking or gouging. Decks and transitions are 3/16-inch thick for optimum durability and low maintenance costs.
All obstacles are available in a wide array of colors to match any park decor. Sk8parks International parks are designed for all abilities and can be used by all riders, including in-line skaters and BMX bikers. Each unit is pre-fabricated for easy and quick installation to get enthusiasts rolling in record time. Participants will come back again and again as the modular obstacles can be easily reconfigured into different formations for all-new challenges.
With the longest and strongest warranty found in the industry, Sk8parks International obstacles will stand up in all types of weather and through the relentless use they take over time from skateboarders, skaters and bikers. The premium warranty provides 20 years of protection on main structures, platforms, decks and railings should they fail due to structural defect.
