UK: Manor Refrigerated Cabinets and Coolsuredoors, both trading divisions of Manor Concepts, have been awarded certification to ISO 14001 Environmental Management System.

The ISO 14001 certification covers all aspects of the companies’ environmental management processes including the use of resources, recycling and waste management.

“Gaining the ISO 14001 certification has meant we have now gained our third accreditation in an impressive time frame of 11 months,” said Manor Concepts’ operations director Martin Corken. Having previously been awarded the ISO 9001:2008 and BS OHSAS 18001 in February 2014, both businesses are officially operating at a certified level across all manufacturing processes.
