ISOINSPEC International, a leading
independent provider of testing and
certification services to PPE
manufacturers, has expanded its
certification services to include the
environmental management
standard ISO 14001.
ISO 14001 is an internationally
recognised standard for
environmental systems. It enables
organisations to measure the impact
its activities, services, products and
people have on the environment.
One of the primary requirements for
successful certification is for
companies to compile a
comprehensive list of the
environmental aspects associated
with their business operations and
identify those that will affect the
environmental most. Typical targets
include managing energy
consumption and disposing of waste
responsibly. The certification process
comprises a two-stage initial
assessment followed by annual
surveillance assessments and a
reassessment every third year.
"Achieving ISO 14001 sends out a
clear signal that a company takes its
environmental responsibilities
seriously," says Paul Clarke,
INSPEC's Managing Director.
