ASC Sharpness Certification
ASC Knife Sharpness Certification provides suppliers and customers of knife sharpening equipment, knife sharpening machines, knife making companies and sharpness service providers with the assurance that their cutting blades are consistently and reliably sharp.
Knife sharpness control not only provides the benefits of sharp knives (improved yield, faster cutting, fewer costly injuries), it also reduces knife usage and results in labour savings in the sharpening process. You will no longer need to worry about inconsistent sharpening performance and uncertain staff competency.
Not only do our ASC certified clients obtain these direct benefits in their operation, they also have access to world leading knife sharpening expertise and are able to utilise the ASC Certification mark in product branding and sales and marketing literature & activities. ASC also works with clients to develop marketing programmes that maximise the value gained from the ASC Mark.
With ASC Knife Sharpness Certification, suppliers of cutting blades, knife sharpening machines and knife sharpening equipment can expect market prominence and improved customer satisfaction, leading to loyal customers, more sales and greater profits.ASC is a unique knife sharpness certification and testing system offered by Anago, an internationally recognised provider of world-leading quality knife sharpness control systems and consulting services.
Knife buyers generally have no guarantee that the knife they are supplied will meet their expected objective standards of knife blade sharpness. The ASC Knife Sharpness Certification System is designed to ensure that consistent levels of knife sharpness are maintained by knife suppliers and users alike.
Suppliers exhibiting the ASC mark have implemented reliable knife sharpness control systems and undertake a strict and regular auditing process of their knife sharpening systems.
By joining the ASC programme, organisations involved in industries that depend on knife sharpness can build robust quality control into their knife sharpening processes, improving their own market position and adding value to their product offerings.
ASC Sharpness Certification can be awarded at either a Standard or 3-Star level and utlises a fee structure that is both affordable and flexible, making it easily accessible to large and small organisations.
