Obtaining Your ISO 14001:2015 Certification

One of the most exciting parts of our work is the sheer breadth of clients that we get to help as we help them obtain certifications of all types.  One of the more recent projects that really stood out was helping an injection molding company in California get their ISO 14001:2015 certification.

ISO 14001:2015

California, USA

Certification for the environmental management system that is applicable to contract manufacturing of injected molded components, sub assemblies, and finished devices servicing medical device, pharmaceutical, and veterinary industries.

This particular certification governs environmental management systems, aiming to help companies adhere to robust processes that drive more sustainable and environmentally conscious operations.  Sustainability is a key focus for society right now as we wrestle with climate change and a number of other environmental concerns.  Companies that want to remain relevant in the next few decades will have to take this very seriously.

As such, ISO 14001:2015 speaks directly to the internal environmental management system – and with this injection molding company, they wanted to make sure that they were on the cutting-edge of sustainability throughout every stage of their production process.  They manufacture components, sub-assemblies, and finished devices for three main industries – medical devices, pharmaceuticals, and veterinary services.  Each of these require the highest standards of equipment in order to perform effectively.

Our work helped to investigate their internal operations and make the necessary changes to fit the guidelines of the certification.  This introspection and objective evaluation actually proved to be immensely valuable for them because it showed ways that they could reduce their environmental impact with some subtle adjustments.  These will continue to pay dividends for years to come.

If your company has sustainability near the top of your priority list, then getting your ISO 14001:2015 certification is a great way to put your money where your mouth is.  It offers a robust and scalable set of processes and procedures that can ensure that you’re doing your part for the environment, while still producing goods of exceptional quality.

Here at American Global Standards, we’d love to help you get there.  We’ve worked with a wide variety of clients and can bring all the expertise, experience, and enthusiasm you need.  And before you know it, you can brag to your clients about how your sustainability efforts are not mere lip service.  Get in touch today!
