Quality Assurance

The Quality Management Systems of Cozy & Comfort are formalized, practical and provide a high level of traceability. To ensure that our systems are effective, we conduct regular internal audits. These audits form part of our continuous improvement process.

Each step is controlled by our standard operating procedures to guarantee the full traceability of materials, consistency in the manufacturing of goods and reliability in all outcomes. The systems have been designed to meet and exceed the expectations of our valued customers.

Responsible Tourism Philosophy

Every company who is Qualmark rated has undergone a rigorous independent assessment and licensing process to become part of the Qualmark licensing system.

All businesses that have a Qualmark are assessed on their environmental performance, which recognizes business for their initiatives in energy, waste, water, conservation and the community.

Cozy & Comfort endeavors to license and re-license our business for the Qualmark standards. Cozy & Comfort follows these standards to contribute to New Zealand Environment.
