Armormax, renowned for their expertise in luxury armoured cars in South Africa, has achieved a significant milestone by becoming a Qualified Vehicle Modifier (QVM) recognized by Ford Motor Company South Africa. This prestigious recognition under Ford's QVM program signifies Armormax's capability to maintain high-quality standards across their armoured vehicle product line. The QVM program, akin to ISO 9001 certification, evaluates a manufacturer's ability to consistently deliver superior quality through rigorous control over engineering, fabrication, and vehicle delivery processes. Armormax's adherence to these stringent standards has not only earned them QVM status but also reinforces their commitment to excellence in vehicle armouring. According to Michael Broom, Marketing Manager at Armormax, the collaboration with Ford SA commenced earlier this year in response to increasing demand from government and fleet sectors. "We had already armoured several units of the new Ranger and Everest models when Ford SA approached us for the QVM program," he states. This synchronicity underscores the effectiveness of Ford's latest models in attracting clients from premium vehicle backgrounds to opt for Armormax's armoured solutions. Armormax's achievement of QVM status was swiftly followed by the delivery of their third Everest model armoured to B4 specification in March. They have since expanded their portfolio to include both B4 and B6 armoured versions of the new Ranger. Notably, their use of advanced lightweight ballistic materials allows them to offer a B6 package that remains comparably light to B4 options from competitors. This advantage ensures minimal impact on vehicle dynamics, preserving original performance characteristics such as suspension and braking systems. "We are proud to join Ford's QVM program, enhancing our ability to provide customers with armoured vehicles backed by comprehensive warranty and service plans," concludes Armormax. Prospective buyers can acquire Armormax packages through authorized dealers or directly from the company, benefiting from a collaborative strategy with Ford SA aimed at delivering unparalleled quality and service.
