We are happy to announce our recent certification as an ISO 14001 business, solidifying our commitment to environmental responsibility and sustainable practices. This internationally recognised certification demonstrates our dedication to minimising our environmental impact and enhancing our sustainability efforts.
ISO 14001 is an international standard that sets out criteria for implementing an effective environmental management system. By achieving this certification, Solus joins an elite group of businesses globally that prioritise sustainable operations.
“We are thrilled to have attained ISO 14001 certification, which reflects our ongoing efforts to integrate sustainability into our core business practices,” said Marcus Bentley, CEO of Solus. “It aligns with our vision to become leaders in sustainability within the sector and underscores our commitment to a cleaner, greener world.”
Solus has already taken significant steps to promote environmental responsibility throughout its operations. We actively assess suppliers against rigorous sustainability criteria, ensuring that partners adhere to stringent standards. We also analyse Environmental Product Declarations, technical standards, and certifications enabling us to recommend products with lower environmental impacts.
“We work hard to minimise ecological impact across all facets of our business,” said Ryan Bennett, Managing Director. “We prioritise low-emission transport, waste reduction, recycling, and the use of sustainable materials across our supply chain. To support our sustainability objectives, we provide comprehensive training to our team on environmental issues and sustainable business practices. This ensures that everyone is equipped with the knowledge and tools necessary to contribute to the company’s overarching sustainability goals.”
Taken alongside our ISO 9001 certified Quality Management System, our Investors in People Gold status and our RIBA-approved sustainability seminar, our ISO 14001 Environmental Management System credibly demonstrates our sense of responsibility to people and planet.
While we acknowledge that our sustainability journey is ongoing, the achievement of ISO 14001 certification is a significant milestone. The certification reinforces our commitment to the path of sustainable business practices and positions Solus as a leader in the sector. By prioritising sustainability, Solus aims to inspire and influence the broader industry, driving positive change and creating a brighter, more environmentally conscious future for all.
