KI is among an elite group of U.S. manufacturers who have acquired ISO 9000 certification. Of all U.S. companies, only one-half of one percent are certified as a total corporation.

The company's Quality Management System for all its manufacturing plants and related corporate functions successfully completed the audit and certification process developed by the International Organization for Standardization. These ISO standards facilitate the world-class exchange of goods and services and are a standardized framework for building, operating and documenting a quality management system. Required periodic audits and inspections from an outside firm ensure the quality system is maintained properly and allows for ongoing improvements in every facet of the company. KI views ISO 9000 certification as recognition of its commitment to the highest standards of quality, aesthetics and craftsmanship.
