What is the EN 9120?<\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”87cc2148-c6f4-4f1b-8609-d757a882564c” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

EN 9120 is a standard for distributors and warehouse keepers in aerospace and defense. Its key characteristic is a focus on the special requirements of this industry. At the same time, where possible, the standard waives typical production requirements.<\/p>\n

In order to be certified according to EN 9120, it is not decisive how high the proportion of operational value added is in aerospace or defense. Rather, the decisive factor is that the business to be certified has characteristics of distributers or warehouse keepers does not at the same time also carry out production processing activities. While batch separation, cutting and preservation are allowed, even small manufacturing or maintenance tasks (e.g. assembly or finishing) lead to an exclusion from EN 9120 and require a change to EN 9100 or EN 9110.<\/p>\n

The aviation standard is available as EN 9120:2018. It is issued via the European Aerospace Quality Group (EAQG). In terms of content, the the American AS 9120 of the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) and the JISQ 9100 of the Japanese Aerospace Quality Group are identical to EN 9120 and therefore equivalent to each other. As of 2019, there are around 900 operating sites in Europe with certification to the EN 9120:2018 aviation standard, compared with just under 1,800 worldwide.<\/p>\n
