OUR HISTORY

Comics4Quality was born in March 3rd, 1994. After 15 years, we are a young company, discovering new ways every day. Our Mission is to tell histories that promote Quality, Excellency and Well-Being in people’s lives. Who doesn’t like to tell histories?

Our first character was born in 1997, and was called Qualy. It was our first exclusive comic book, which served to all kinds of companies, no matter what their area or segment of activity was. Before that, we only made personalized comic books, exclusive for each customer.

Qualy is until today our most known character: there are more than 2,000,000 copies of the ISO 9001 comic book sold, and more than 5,000,000 people have already had contact with this blue being!

Following the concept of team, we started to create a family for Little ISO, in which each member would approach a specific subject on Quality. Thus, in 1998, it was born Shiro, a lovable Japanese robot that talks about the Program 5S (methodology broadcast worldwide for improving the quality of the work environment, considering the basis for the implementation of any Quality Management System).

Thenceforth, it also came into scene Little PPE (Safety at Work), Greeny (Environment), QualiTS (TS 16949), Cleary Boy (Good Manufacturing Practices), Improviso and Standardiso (which explain the concepts of ISO 9000), Zero-Breaking (TPM), Loggy (Logistics) and Sarah (SA 8000 - Social Responsibility).

There are other characters, such as the Owl and the Apprentice Sorcerer, who show us that it is not necessary being a magician to practice Quality, but that the results obtained through such practices can actually be considered magic!

Due to this pair's success, the Owl became the symbol of our collection Comics4Quality and was called ISOWL, name chosen in a contest promoted along with our readers. It represents the knowledge and sympathy that any person who works in Quality must have.

Since the appearance of our company in 1994, until today, more than 1,000 pages have already been produced, more than 5,000 comics drawn and more than 9,000 balloons written.

Currently, we are the company with the greater collection of comics about Quality in Brazil, inclusively having already created comic books for our customers' subsidiary and parent companies in Argentina, Mexico, France, Italy, Portugal, Canada, Ecuador, Venezuela, Costa Rica and Jamaica!

Among our customers, there are organizations such as Bahia Sul, Politeno, Siemens and PQU – Petroquímica União, winners of the National Quality Award (PNQ), Inmetro, Metrô de São Paulo (Subway System), Gerdau, Companhia Vale do Rio Doce, Perdigão, Telefonica, Electrolux, Boticário, Kraft Foods, Suez, Philips, Parmalat, Telefonica, Votorantim, Mitsubishi, Goodyear, Johnson & Johnson, Petrobras and many others that wouldn't fit here. Altogether, there are more than 15,000 companies served during these 15 years.

Commitment, Respect and Creativity are the values that support our development and relationship with our customers. And the Enthusiasm is the energy that moves and charms us! After all, it is only worth working when it brings joy and will to learn and wanting more... more, and more!
