We are proud to announce that BS Fixings and our parent company BS Stainless have been awarded the prestigious ISO 14001:2015 certification. This notable achievement marks a significant milestone in our journey towards environmental excellence and sustainability, reinforcing our position as a leader in the industry.
ISO 14001:2015 is an internationally recognised standard that sets out the criteria for an effective environmental management system (EMS), providing a framework for businesses to follow. Achieving the ISO 14001 certification was not an overnight success but a result of our dedicated efforts to integrate sustainable practices into our core business strategy. We have implemented several key initiatives over the past year to meet the stringent requirements of the ISO 14001 standard.
These include the installation of solar panels across our facilities, switching to LED lighting to reduce energy consumption, and transitioning our company fleet to 100% electric vehicles. These actions not only contribute to reducing our greenhouse gas emissions but also align with our goal of leading by example in the adoption of sustainable practices. These environmental initiatives have already begun to yield positive impacts, and we are confident that their benefits will continue to grow as we further our commitment to sustainability. Our certification is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team, who have striven to meet the requirements set by the ISO 14001 standard.
We are excited about the future and the opportunity to continue leading the way in sustainable practices within our industry. We extend our heartfelt thanks to our employees, customers, and partners for their support and commitment to sustainability.
