OUR ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT
The slight increase in the consumption of propane gas
may be due to the increase in the number of meals
prepared and served at the company canteen.
Consumption of paper and toner has fallen significantly
due both to continued encouragement of awareness on
the part of employees of the responsible use of resources
and to the use of previously acquired stock. Consumption
of tapes, discs and batteries also fell in 2012.
As regards purchase criteria, for toner the supplier has
ISO certificate 9001 (2000), ISO 14001, and production
is in accordance with DIN 33870, ISO 19752, ISO 19798/
24712, ISO 10561; it also has a Nordic Swan certificate.
For paper the supplier has certificates OSHSAS 18001,
ISO 9001 and ISO 14001.
