SGS Certification: An Authoritative Halo for Every Product

Amid the wave of Industry 4.0, demand for automation spare parts is exploding—yet the pain point of "new suppliers mixed in quality" is more glaring than ever. Every purchase a customer makes is a gamble between trust and risk. As a seasoned supplier with more than twenty years in the field, Amikon was the first to break the deadlock—inviting the world-recognized testing body SGS to carry out random inspections on all brands in our warehouse. The result: an "EXCELLENT" report card that redefines what "trust-worthy automation spares" really means.

SGS Certification: An Authoritative Halo for Every Product
SGS is the global leader in inspection, verification, testing and certification; its reports are accepted as a "quality passport" in more than 150 markets, including the EU, North America and Asia-Pacific. By submitting to SGS testing, Amikon subjects every PLC, every I/O module and every cable to: Visual & packaging conformity checks Functional sampling tests Material and environmental-compliance verification Storage and transport protection audits The final SGS report rates Amikon "EXCELLENT" and explicitly states: "All inspected samples are brand-new and original; packaging details and compliance documents match 100%." This is not just a report—it is a customer confidence pill.

From "Cost-Driven" to "Trust-Driven": A New Decision Logic Price and lead time used to dominate supplier selection; today buyers focus on "zero-downtime risk" and "long-term compliance cost". SGS certification helps Amikon deliver three value leaps: Visualised product credibility—every quotation now carries a clickable SGS certificate Accelerated purchasing decisions—authoritative backing cuts customer QA audit time by 50%, shrinking average order confirmation from 7 days to 48 hours


Case Study: One SGS Report Wins a Million-Euro Line In March 2024 a major European paper mill urgently needed 20 ABB INFI-90 control boards with a 5-day delivery window. Under intense "time & risk" pressure the customer demanded third-party proof of new-original status. Amikon instantly uploaded the SGS inspection report and opened a video inspection channel—full recording from unboxing to functional test. The result: same-day PO, order value over EUR 1.2 million, followed by a three-year framework agreement.

Trust Compounding: From One Test to Lifetime Partnership SGS testing is not a one-off marketing stunt but the starting point of Amikon's "trust asset". Reports are now embedded in: Website download centre (bilingual PDF) ERP customer dossiers (auto-push updates) Going forward, Amikon will expand SGS inspections to 100% of SKU stock and introduce quarterly rolling audits plus customer-designated spot checks, keeping the trust chain unbroken.
