IKO has achieved the environmental standard ISO 14001 for its bituminous and liquid membranes factory based in Wigan.
With the Appley Bridge facility achieving ISO 14001, all three of IKO’s factories now comply with environmental standards, as the Clay Cross plant in Chesterfield and its site at Grangemill Quarry have both already achieved the accreditation.
Andy Williamson, group managing director of IKO, said: “As a company we’re focused on recycling raw materials, reducing packaging, cutting energy and water consumption and monitoring logistics to minimise environmental impact. IKO’s continued investment in environmental and energy performance across all sites will remain a priority.”
Jon Pickup, group safety health and environmental manager, added: “Achieving ISO 14001 across all three UK sites is a great achievement for IKO and an acknowledgment of the hard work that everyone has put in to achieve it.”
