ISO Management System

Acer is an ISO 9001 and 14001 certified company, meaning our quality control and environmental management systems meet international standards. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was established in Geneva, Switzerland in February 1947 with the goal to promote standardization of related activities in all countries around the world.

ISO9001 is primarily concerned with quality management and fulfillment of customer demands for quality. ISO 14001 is primarily concerned with the voluntary establishment of environmental management systems (EMS) specially suited to each company. Each EMS should work to achieve sustainable management through voluntary and sustained improvement of environmental performance by means of pollution prevention and proper management.

Acer makes use of ISO standards as tools to improve internal procedures. The ISO 9001 Quality Management System ensures and enhances quality of goods and services, while ISO 14001 works to evaluate potential environmental impacts of products. The scope covered by our EMS ranges from design, production, supplier management, markets, to post-sale lifecycle of products. Acer also requires its suppliers to establish their own EMS. Currently all of Acer’s first-tier suppliers are ISO 14001 certified.
