The GGF Trade Federation Gains ISO 14001 Accreditation
We are delighted to announce the GGF has gained ISO 14001 Accreditation. The GGF are dedicated to understanding and improving the effects our industry has on the environment and we are proud to be able to offer guidance and support to all GGF members surrounding environmental issues.
ISO 14001 sets out the criteria for an environmental management system and can be certified to. It maps out a framework that a company or organisation can follow to set up an effective Environmental Management System (EMS).
An EMS supports businesses in identifying, managing, monitoring and controlling environmental processes.
It doesn’t matter what type or size your organisation is, the ISO 14001 is a great standard to have. There are preferential rates available for GGF members, if you wish to gain this for your business.
