ISO certifications – Efficient energy management
ISO 50001 certification is evidence of our efficient energy management: reducing CO₂ emissions and our energy consumption. ISO 14001 certification, which we have held since 2009, demonstrates our optimum environmental management and our ecological footprint.
Swiss and European regulations to reduce CO2 emissions
Our coatings conform to REACH requirements and regulations. Metalcolor participates voluntarily in the Energy Agency Swiss Private Sector (EnAW) programme. Its objectives are ambitious and demanding. In formal agreements with the Swiss authorities (the Federal Office for the Environment, FOEN) we have undertaken to reduce our CO₂ emissions and energy consumption.
