Williams Refrigeration are delighted to announce that it has achieved ISO 14001 accreditation for the design, manufacture, installation and service of commercial cabinets and modular products.
This prestigious award shows Williams commitment to reducing its environmental footprint and decreasing the pollution and waste produced, as well as its on-going commitment to providing high quality, innovative and energy efficient performance driven products.
Williams has held the ISO 9001 certificate in Quality Management Systems since 1991 and the certifying body for this and the ISO 14001 accreditation has been LRAQ - Lloyd's Register Quality Assurance. The award has been achieved in a remarkably short period. This is in main due to many of the measures required to meet environmental legislation, and to work within a framework of concern for the environment, already being in place.
Working in partnership with customers, Williams are continually incorporating energy saving features into the design of its products and have specifically targeted the use of alternative refrigerants to meet market demands, as well as a reduction in the use of its packaging.
Within its areas of operation, Williams environmental management systems are continually looking to reduce manufacturing energy usage (electricty and gas) and control its waste products to bring a reduction of waste to landfill, year on year.
Everyday operations are continually monitored internally by specially trained staff, not only to meet legislative requirements but to encompass future changes.
Williams has always been a leader in environmental awareness. Having helped develop the first CFC free insulation, it was the first catering refrigeration manufacturer to use it in production models. Williams continue to hold such issues in the highest regard and offer ECA accredited models, a range of hydrocarbon units, as well as its unique Glycol refrigeration system.
The AFE Group of companies is very much a lead player on the environmental stage, with both Falcon and Williams holding ISO 14001 accreditation in the UK.
