This year we want to tell you more about one certification, in particular, that is new to us, ISO 14001. We are now ISO 14001 environmentally certified. Using a cloud system is beneficial for any company. It eliminates unnecessary paper and makes internal processes more effective, which is why Dorar Tammam Trading & Contracting Co. Ltd has always been environmentally conscious. However, the certification is now a declaration that the company is operating environmentally responsible.

What is an Environmental Management System?

An environmental management system (EMS) complies with the ISO 14001 standard and can be established as part of an organization’s strategy to implement its environmental policy and comply with government regulations. An EMS focuses resources on fulfilling the commitments identified in the organization’s policy. This policy may include reducing or eliminating the negative environmental impact of its products, services, and activities or increasing their positive effects.

ISO 14001 certifies that a company uses an environmental management system, meaning a systematic approach to protecting the environment in all business aspects. In organizations that have received this certification, environmental protection is part of their business strategy and daily operations.
