Published: WORSHIP
CHINA: Martin Manufacturing Zhuhai Ltd, Martin Professional’s production facility in China, has fully developed and implemented the ISO 14001 environmental management system and received its ISO 14001 certification.
The ISO 14001 environmental management standards address minimising negative environmental impact while monitoring compliance with applicable laws, regulations and other environmentally orientated requirements.
With the ISO 14001 certification, Martin’s facility – already ISO 9001 certified – has met additional requirements pertaining to management reviews, audits, corrective/preventive action and document control. Additionally, ISO 14001 encompasses: improvements beyond current environmental impact standards; implementation of an environmental policy and action plan; and maintaining high standards in the work environment.
‘We have in fact been implementing the ISO 14001 standard at our Chinese facility for years but have only now received official certification,’ said Michael Christensen, Martin Professional’s Corporate QA Manager. ‘It is our express goal to be the greenest company in our industry and this is an important step in that direction.’
