Learn how ISO 14001 (environmental) and ISO 50001 (energy management) certification services support you in reducing your carbon footprint and driving sustainable business practices.
The journey to sustainability is no longer an option – it is now a business imperative for organizations striving to meet growing expectations for responsible operations and reduced environmental impacts.
In line with our IMPACT NOW initiative, we champion the critical role of environmental and energy management systems, leveraging the proven frameworks of ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 certification. These internationally recognized standards empower organizations to seamlessly integrate sustainability into their core operations and achieve measurable progress.
A strategic approach to sustainability
Sustainability is essential for organizations in a world grappling with the climate crisis, where regulatory scrutiny and stakeholder demands are increasing.
IMPACT NOW for sustainability highlights four key areas: climate, circularity, nature and ESG assurance. At the heart of this initiative are the environmental and energy management systems standards, ISO 14001 and ISO 50001, which equip you to manage resources efficiently and address your environmental responsibilities heads-on.
ISO 14001: Driving environmental excellence
ISO 14001 – environmental management systems (EMS) certification offers a proven framework to help you proactively manage and reduce ecological impact. By implementing this standard, you can:
- Ensure compliance: navigate complex environmental regulations confidently, reducing the risk of fines and penalties
- Minimize operational footprints: adopt proactive measures to cut waste, conserve resources and lower emissions as you transition toward sustainable practices
- Build stakeholder trust: showcase your commitment to environmental stewardship, meeting the growing expectations of consumers and investors
ISO 50001: Leading in energy management
ISO 50001 – energy management systems (EnMS) certification establishes a globally recognized approach to energy efficiency, empowering you to:
- Boost energy efficiency: identify and implement energy-saving opportunities that lower costs and enhance profitability
- Support decarbonization goals: align energy usage with climate action strategies, contributing directly to emission-reduction targets
- Increase resilience: adapt to volatile energy markets and regulatory pressures, ensuring alignment with global sustainability commitments
Certification for a competitive edge
Achieving ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 certification means more than just compliance – it is a strategic move that delivers tangible benefits.
These include:
- Cost reductions: lower expenses on energy and waste management
- Progress toward net-zero: optimize resource efficiency, reduce emissions and systematically manage environmental and energy performance to achieve carbon-reduction targets
- Enhanced brand reputation: position your brand as a leader in sustainability, resonating with eco-conscious consumers and partners
- Data-driven decision-making: leverage continuous improvements in processes to enable more effective monitoring, reporting and performance evaluation
Certification to ISO 14001 or ISO 50001 can help reduce your ESG vulnerabilities and improve your sustainability scores for schemes, such as DJSI, MSCI ESG, ISS ESG, Sustainalytics and EcoVadis.
