Certifications

FDI is ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified.

FDI belongs to the group of professionals who initiated the Vigik label. FDI products are Vigik approved and the door stations comply with the law on accessibility for the disabled.

The Vigik system allows professionals to access the common areas of buildings. These professionals are generally operators or service providers such as: La Poste, Enedis, GRDF, the press, elevator companies, plumbers, electricians, cleaning companies…

Thus, Vigik allows the building manager to manage and control the access of these operators and service providers without regulating the access of residents.

In addition, in 2021 FDI joined the French Fab label. It is a community of industrialists made in France. The French Fab was created in 2017 by Bruno Lemaire, Minister of Economy, Finance and Recovery, with the aim of federating all manufacturers around common values. The French Fab embodies the companies, economic actors, institutions and industrial sites located in France who recognize themselves in the will to develop the French industry.
