For the sake of the environment - Implementation of an environmental management system according EN ISO 14001:2004

One of the biggest societal issues of our time is environmental protection with its various facets. Environmental protection plays a large roll in private, public and commercial areas.
Through the development and marketing of highly efficient thermal insulation materials based on pyrogenous silica, Porextherm has been making a very big contribution for environmental protection and for permanent reduction of energy consumption for a number of years. Porextherm is now expanding its management system and integrating an environmental management system according to EN ISO 14001:2004, as part of a consistent way of continuing to preserve natural resources, thereby further contributing to environmental protection.
This norm, which is accredited world-wide, applies to companies which work in an environmentally compatible way and who wish to further ensure this through a systematically established management system. The external certification for this system is planned for November 2009.

We have drawn up the following goals for our quality and environmental protection-oriented company leadership:

To guarantee highest customer satisfaction through absolute
dependability and adherence to delivery dates
To maintain constructive, long-term and trusting relationships
with our customers, staff and partners
The principle of continuous improvement, with the goal of
minimizing mistakes and optimizing processes
To deal with resources (materials, air, water, energy, earth) in
a preservative way and to avoid emissions, waste, and other
environmental pollutants in an economically justifiable way
To implement the most modern technology, while taking into
account cost-effectiveness, in order to ensure efficient, secure
and environmentally compatible processes
To adhere to all relevant statutory provisions To maintain an
effective and efficient quality management system based on
DIN EN ISO 9001:2008 and EN ISO 14001:20
