INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS

König + Neurath AG is certified according to the international management standards for occupational health and safety, energy, quality and the environment. An environmental management system in accordance with Regulation (EEC) 1836/93 (EMAS-I) was introduced back in 1996. The environmental management system implemented in the company in 1998 in accordance with DIN EN ISO 14001 builds on this and has been in use ever since.

In 2015, König + Neurath AG‘s energy management system was certified in accordance with DIN EN ISO 50001. This involves analyzing energy consumption in a targeted manner and deriving a package of measures to save energy.

We constantly monitor and evaluate our processes with environmental and energy-related impacts. In areas where changes are necessary, we take appropriate measures to minimize the environmental impact in accordance with the precautionary principle. Certification in accordance with DIN EN ISO 9001 is used for quality assurance. Consistently high product quality is the basis of the company‘s success and therefore a top priority for our company.

The occupational health and safety management system was certified in accordance with DIN ISO 45001 in 2022. This management system certification has replaced OHSAS 18001. This had previously been used in many countries as the certification basis for occupational health and safety management systems.

As the management systems are similar in some areas, they have been merged into an integrated management system (IMS). This allows synergies to be exploited and duplication of work to be avoided.

The management systems lead to continuous improvement within the company, as they enable regular monitoring of key parameters. The achievement of self-imposed targets and compliance with standards is reviewed annually by external auditors.
