Security management systems manufacturer AMAG Technology has been awarded ISO 14001 certification, an environmental standard recognized worldwide. The certification recognizes AMAG’s proficiency in developing a means to consistently monitor and control its environmental impacts.
Recycling, saving paper and using energy efficient light bulbs are among some of the energy saving efforts required by all AMAG staff members.
The ISO 14001 standard, created by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), is an internationally accepted measurement for environmental management systems. AMAG’s accreditation follows its parent company G4Tec, which was the first security manufacturer to receive certification.
“AMAG is at the forefront of environmental sustainability,” says AMAG Technology President Bob Sawyer. “The ISO 14001 certification helped us develop a clear environmental commitment to reduce, reuse and recycle waste, and preserve energy to reflect the investment and commitment of AMAG Technology.”
The company will identify and control the environmental impact of its activities, products or services and continually improve its environmental performance. In addition to the ISO 14001 certification, AMAG products manufactured after Jan. 1, 2008, are compliant to the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (ROHS) directive, which restricts the use of certain hazardous materials in the manufacture of various types of electronic and electrical equipment.
