In-house calibration of all CTC sensors is conducted with full traceability to National and International Institutes of Standards and Technology (N.I.S.T. , P.T.B). Additionally, CTC has dedicated incoming inspection and outbound inspection teams to inspect 100% of products coming into CTC for manufacturing and leaving CTC as finished products to ensure quality standards. CTC also has a dedicated Quality team that works full-time to implement progressive practices, ensure adherence to relevant standards, provide internal audits, and react to and address any customer quality concerns.
