Environmental Management

ISO 14001 Environmental Management System

An ISO 14001 Environmental Management System allows the organization to develop a systematic management approach to address its environmental concerns. It can ultimately lead to the international registration of the EMS. The mining, mineral processing and steelmaking industry have already been integrating to their overall management system specific concerns over environmental issues. Met-Chem is now offering its services to assist the industry in achieving the implementation of an ISO 14001 Environmental Management System.

Met-Chem's know-how in the mining/metallurgical and heavy industry teamed with well-established environmental firms specialized in ISO 14001 EMS implementation ensures that all the relevant stages of the process (policy, planning, implementation, maintenance and review) are addressed and that they meet ISO 14001 requirements for registration. This technical collaboration encompasses a comprehensive expertise that is crucial for companies in industries laying out the basis of the EMS.
