Nyes quality management system consists of set of policies, procedures, networks, system controls and processes to ensure that the product you specify is the product you receive.

• As part of our Supplier Quality Management Process, Nye audits our suppliers routinely. This audit ensures that our lubricants are manufactured with the highest quality raw materials and confirms that our robust supply and product line are consistent and meet Quality Certifications.
• We dont accept certifications at face value; instead, we perform independent inspections to ensure the spec is spot-on. Nyes incoming inspection team inspects the raw material containers for damages, labels, lot numbers, corresponding paperwork, and testing listed on the certificates of analysis and conformance to ensure it meets the internal specifications set by our quality team.
• Nye has developed a set of standardized manufacturing policies and procedures to ensure product consistency, optimization and sustainability. Approved instructions by the quality control system are carried out to meet strict requirements and/or customer criteria.
• Nye performs a series of validation tests on all our lubricants to ensure that they are of the highest quality prior to shipment. Our engineers can even provide you with test samples so that you can validate our products on your own terms.
• Nye inspects all our incoming packaging containers to ensure that they conform to a MIL Spec Acceptable Quality Level. To ensure quality upon arrival, all our jars are spill and tamper proof. Our Quality Control team inspects every item and every shipment, via checklist, before it leaves our docks to catch any labeling issues before shipment.
