At Composite Technology International (CTI), our commitment to quality is centered on the foundation of our business strategy, delivering value to our customers. By maintaining the highest standards of quality in millwork and door components, we provide reliable, consistent products that enhance our client’s operations and outcomes. With a global footprint and an innovative, integrated supply chain, we ensure our solutions meet the unique demands of the industry, helping our customers achieve their goals with confidence.
Ensuring Quality Excellence at Every Stage of Production
Quality assurance at CTI transcends conventional checks. We intertwine rigorous quality control measures across all stages of production—from raw material selection at our mills to final delivery. Our state-of-the-art mills around the world, including our domestic production facility in Atlanta, are equipped with advanced manufacturing technologies. These facilities allow us to produce a wide range of millwork solutions and door components, ensuring each product not only meets but exceeds our high-performance building materials standards.
Expanding Global Manufacturing Capabilities for Resilient Supply Chains
By diversifying our global manufacturing capabilities across multiple continents, we protect our customers from supply chain disruptions caused by geopolitical or environmental events. This global strategy not only supports sustainability in building materials but also enhances our ability to respond swiftly to market demands. The recent $26 million investment in our manufacturing capabilities outside of China underscores our commitment to technological advancement and industry-leading quality in millwork manufacturing.
Standardizing Quality Control Across Global Operations
As CTI expands globally, ensuring standardized quality control remains complex. Differences in operational maturity, workforce training, and logistics present challenges. To address these, we implement standardized protocols, conduct frequent audits, and have dedicated CTI managers and inspectors on-site.
Training is key to maintaining our quality standards. Regular programs and shop-floor knowledge-sharing bridge skill gaps and reinforce best practices. Communication barriers are overcome with multilingual managers, visual tools like flowcharts, and AI-assisted translation for consistent reporting and documentation.
Leveraging Technology for Quality Assurance
Innovation plays a crucial role in maintaining and improving our quality control measures. At CTI, we employ real-time Statistical Process Control (SPC) monitoring systems to track production quality data. A centralized ERP system enables seamless data collection across our global entities, allowing for greater traceability and compliance with customer expectations.
In addition to real-time monitoring, our in-house testing protocols have been standardized to ensure uniformity in evaluating product durability and performance. These technological advancements strengthen our ability to predict potential failures, reduce downtime, and enhance overall efficiency in our production processes.
Measuring and Improving Quality Performance
At CTI, quality isn’t just an expectation—it’s a measurable benchmark. We closely monitor key performance indicators such as internal defect rates, customer claims, yield percentages, and on-time shipments. These metrics allow us to pinpoint areas for improvement, allocate resources effectively, and adjust production schedules to uphold our rigorous standards.
Superior Logistics and Customer Satisfaction
CTI’s integrated supply chain is a testament to our strategic deployment process, designed to streamline operations from our mills directly to customer warehouses. The logistics flow, managed by our international logistics team, establishes timely delivery of our products, ensuring our customer’s projects stay on schedule. Our door components and millwork solutions reach customers with the assurance of quality, backed by our comprehensive customer service and support
Looking Ahead: Quality Assurance Initiatives
To further solidify our position as an industry leader in quality assurance, CTI is investing in new inspection equipment, including optical comparators, to automate and enhance quality checks. Our commitment to data-driven decision-making will be strengthened through expanded analytics capabilities via MS Business Central, offering deeper insights into production trends. Additionally, sustainability-driven quality improvements are being explored to align with evolving industry standards.
By continuously refining our processes, training our workforce, and integrating cutting-edge technology, CTI delivers tangible benefits to our customers by providing reliable, high-quality millwork and door component solutions that reduce customer downtimes, lower costs, and elevate project outcomes. Our commitment to quality excellence ensures that every product not only meets but exceeds customer expectations, empowering them to stay competitive in their markets while building lasting trust in CTI as a dependable partner in the building products sector.
