Why KQC?

Safety

Personal radiation protection is all about one thing: your safety against ionizing radiation. Reliable protection lead to safer work environments. KQC ensures this.

Sustainability

Quality does not stop at the quality inspection. Together with KQC, you build a continuous quality development that is resilient and adaptable.

Efficiency

Inefficiency compromises quality. I strive for continuous improvement while maintaining the highest standards. Quality thrives under solutions that are feasible and efficient.

Dr. Pieter-Jan Kellens

The founder of KQC obtained his PhD on 11 October 2024 with his dissertation, “Optimizing the Quality Control of Personal Radiation Protective Equipment: A Study on Integrity, Policy and Use.”

Reliable protective equipment, a well-considered quality policy, and correct use are essential to providing optimal protection.

His vision is clear: quality and efficiency go hand in hand. High quality standards are essential, but they should serve efficiency. Unnecessary complexity and inefficiency put quality under pressure. Practicality, flexibility, and sustainability bring out the underlying quality and take it to the next level.

Pieter-Jan and KQC stand for quality that works: sustainable, efficient, and with your safety in mind.
