EMAS - Environmental Management System

This certifies that the company fulfils all the requirements of EC Regulation 1836/93. The European Union has recognised that the international standard for environmental management EN ISO 14001 may constitute a stage prior to EMAS. The adoption of ISO 14001 as an element of the EMAS environmental management system will enable organisations to pass from the ISO 14001 standard to EMAS without having to redouble their efforts. EMAS goes further than ISO 14001 in some aspects, such as the creation of an Environmental Declaration.
