Environmental Audits

Environmental audits based on the Company's environmental management systems are of two types: internal audits and external audits. Their goal is to verify the status of environmental initiatives.

Internal audits consist of plant audits conducted by each plant's auditing team and Head Office audits of the whole Company, plant by plant, by audit teams in which members are drawn from all the Company's plants, so that no difference arises in the audits of the different plants.
After the audit, study sessions are held for the staff of each plant on issues raised. Plants try to improve their environmental track record by discussion and exchange of information, including examples of areas of steady improvement and cases where improved product quality has had significant environmental benefits.
