We are delighted to confirm that SVGC has achieved ISO 14001 Environmental Management System (EMS) certification.
What is ISO 14001?
ISO 14001 is the internationally recognised standard for environmental management systems. It provides organisations with a framework for reducing their environmental impact, ensuring regulatory compliance, and driving continual improvement in environmental performance.
By holding ISO 14001 certification, we demonstrate that we have robust processes in place to identify, manage and improve our environmental performance, covering aspects such as waste, resource use, pollution and operational impacts.
Why this matters to our customers, partners and stakeholders
At SVGC we recognise that environmental stewardship is not just a compliance activity but a strategic priority. Being ISO 14001-certified means, we can assure customers, partners and stakeholders that:
- We actively monitor and manage our environmental aspects and impacts, reducing risk and enhancing resilience.
- We commit to continual improvement — it’s not a one-time check but an ongoing journey of better performance.
- We embed environmental thinking into our business culture, helping enhance our reputation and deliver value for customers who expect responsible practices.
What this means for us as an organisation
Achieving ISO 14001 certification means that our systems, across our operations, processes, and service delivery, remain aligned with best-practice environmental standards. It also underlines our commitment to:
- Minimising resource consumption and reducing waste across our operations.
- Ensuring regulatory obligations and environmental risks are proactively managed.
- Maintaining a high standard of service delivery underpinned by sound environmental governance.
- Partnering with customers who expect a trusted and environmentally conscious supplier.
Looking ahead
We will continue to engage our team, partners and stake holders in achieving improved environmental outcomes.
Our thanks go to our colleagues, customers and partners for their support and collaboration. Achieving this as a small business can be a challenge, if you’re a small business and want to learn from our experience, please get in touch.
