H&R's UK and Netherlands businesses awarded ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 accreditation

 

H&R ChemPharm (UK) Ltd and H&R Benelux BV have been awarded third party certification for ISO 14001 (Environmental) and OHSAS 18001 (Health & Safety) management systems. The aim of ISO 14001 is to assist a company to continually improve their environmental performance, whilst also complying with any applicable legislation. OHSAS 18001 conformance ensures that all people directly or indirectly involved with the company are exposed to a minimum number of risks, and that effective steps have been put in place to avoid accidents and unsafe situations.

Accreditation in these areas supports our continued business with many customers, so it is both essential and valuable. Accreditation has been granted to our manufacturing sites in Tipton and Nuth. To acquire certification requires a significant amount of hard work and dedicated effort, and will require continued support going forward to ensure we maintain our commitment to environmental responsibility and safety in the workplace. Continued improvement in all aspects of our business is essential to our future strategy and success. Thanks go to everyone involved in gaining this achievement.
