All the processes in the company are laid down in a consistently used QM system, in order to achieve reliable results.

Due to the design of our plants and our finely-tuned processes, the services provided by BGS are fully reproducible and highly reliable. For complete traceability, we record each order from the receipt of goods through the irradiation process to re-delivery, and document such order in accordance with the regulatory requirements.

BGS ensures highest standards for daily operations by way of the following principles:

We have a stringent and sophisticated quality system that has been continuously developed since the 1980s. The system defines the guidelines and rules of daily tasks, continuity and improvement of processes and guarantees the efficiency of operations.

We focus our attention on our employees, as they are the most valuable asset of our company. We believe that motivation, knowledge and commitment are the key factors for the success of BGS, which we want to develop through training, appreciation and consideration of individual strengths and by providing a culture of involvement, constructive feed-back and open communication.

We minimize the occurrence of potential errors through state-of-the art facilities and technologies. This means that for example a highly sophisticated, validated computer system is used to handle and monitor the products of our customers, the use of automated plants wherever possible, as well as the clear separation of sterile and non-sterile products through a one-way system.
