Thames Card Technology has recently been awarded with the ISO 14001 environmental certification; ISO 14001 is an internationally recognised standard that sets out the requirements for an Environmental Management System (EMS).

As part of our assessment we were able to focus on improvements that could be made to our existing environmental commitments in line with our Environmental Policy.

An example of some of the improvements made are that our forklift trucks have now been converted from gas to electric, paper towels have been replaced across the site by energy efficient hand dryers and energy generated from our compressor room can now be used to heat our loading bay during the winter.

This certification demonstrates our commitment to legal and regulatory compliance as well as our continuing commitment to protecting the environment, now and for future generations.
