GQS Successfully Completes ISO 9001:2015 Certification for Jovash International Inc., Philippines

Global Quality Services certifies Jovash International Inc. under ISO 9001:2015, validating the company’s quality management framework across its personal care and hygiene product manufacturing and distribution operations in Bulacan.

MANILA, Philippines, April 28, 2025 – Global Quality Services (GQS), a leading ISO certification consultancy and accredited lead auditor training provider operating across the Philippines and Southeast Asia, has successfully completed the ISO 9001:2015 certification process for Jovash International Inc. The certification confirms that Jovash International has established and maintains a Quality Management System (QMS) that meets the full requirements of ISO 9001:2015, the internationally recognized standard for quality management across industries.

For manufacturers and distributors of personal care and consumer hygiene products, ISO 9001:2015 is particularly significant. Products such as isopropyl and ethyl alcohol, absorbent cotton, cotton buds, and maternity pads are classified as health-related consumer goods subject to regulatory oversight by the Philippine Food and Drug Administration. A certified QMS provides documented, auditable process controls for raw material sourcing, manufacturing consistency, product labeling, storage, and distribution that regulatory bodies and retail and institutional clients require of suppliers in this category.

Jovash International Inc. is headquartered at 175 Balubaran Street, Duhat, Bocaue, Bulacan, and operates as a manufacturer and distributor of personal care and hygiene products under multiple proprietary brands. Its Adamson brand covers a full range of isopropyl and ethyl alcohol solutions in multiple formats, including pump, spray, and gallon variants, as well as pure and soft cotton balls in standard, jumbo, and hospital-pack configurations, and cotton buds in 108, 200, and 400-tip variants. The Daisy brand covers absorbent cotton products, while Sanitex addresses postpartum care through ultra-absorbent maternity pads. The Lane Harper brand extends the company’s alcohol portfolio with moisturizer-enriched formulations. This multi-brand architecture, serving both retail consumers and institutional healthcare buyers, requires consistent quality controls across a broad and regulated product range.

The GQS audit was conducted through a structured two-stage process. Stage one involved a thorough review of Jovash International’s QMS documentation, including its quality policy, product specifications, raw material approval procedures, manufacturing process controls, labeling compliance framework, and customer complaint management system. Stage two comprised a full-on-site conformity audit at the Bocaue, Bulacan facility, assessing the implementation of controls across production, quality inspection, warehousing, and distribution functions. Jovash International Inc. successfully completed both stages of the audit process.

“Jovash International has built a diverse brand portfolio serving both retail and institutional markets, and the quality disciplines required to maintain consistency across that range are exactly what ISO 9001:2015 is designed to formalize. “This certification gives their buyers and institutional clients a verified assurance of the controls behind every product that carries the Jovash name.”

The certification supports Jovash International’s compliance positioning under the Philippine Food and Drug Administration’s regulatory framework governing manufacturers and distributors of cosmetics, household hazardous substances, and health-related consumer products under Republic Act 9711. It also strengthens the company’s eligibility in institutional and government procurement processes where quality system certification is increasingly required as part of supplier qualification.

The certification is valid for three years and subject to annual surveillance audits conducted by GQS to verify ongoing conformance and continual improvement of the QMS.
