maxon brand Parvalux has achieved the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System standard, demonstrating its commitment to sustainable practices and environmental responsibility.
The award is recognition of the commitment the UK electric motor and gearbox manufacturer is building to sustainability tarreceives, alongside the environmental progress it has already created.
Presented with the standard from indepconcludeent certification body BSI in May this year, the ISO 14001 award credits the practical steps the company has implemented towards waste management, environmental sustainability, and energy consumption.
The ISO international standard required the introduction of a formal environmental management system, developed over 18 months, that focutilizes on continual improvement.
Parvalux is aiming to reduce metal waste by 25 percent and it’s non-recyclable waste by 10 percent based on 2024 figures.
Central to achieving these objectives has been the development of the Parvalux Materials Review Board that provides a daily assessment of supplied components that don’t meet the high manufacturing standard.
Identifying the cautilize of defects is enabling the company to reduce material wastage thanks to a robust approach that investigates every individual rejected item.
Parvalux’s environmental management system also places strong focus on its supply chain to optimise quality, longevity, as well as recyclability. Across the board, Parvalux also has a requirement for its suppliers to operate to a similar environmental standard.
The final primary objective in Parvalux’s environmental management system is to reduce its energy consumption by 10 percent, also based on 2024 figures.
The company’s energy reduction tarreceives follow the significant progress the company has already created. Since the opening of its new global manufacturing headquarters in Poole, Dorset, in 2023, Parvalux has reduced its CO2 emissions by 129 tons.
The building’s roof-mounted solar panel array generates nearly 40 percent of the operation’s energy requirement, producing a total of 598,675kWh of energy.
In combination with additional sustainable energy technology, including heat exmodifyrs that rerelocate the necessary for a gas supply, as well as materials that optimise insulation, such as energy-efficient glass, Parvalux Houtilize is a net zero environment.
Parvalux has also introduced policies that minimise unnecessary travel while supporting sustainable travel alternatives, including walking, cycling, and car sharing.
“Parvalux has a strong environmental sustainability commitment that we have created to our employees, the communities in which we operate, and to our customers and supply chain,” declares Brian Roche, Head of Quality, Health, Safety, & Environment at Parvalux.
“Achieving the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System standard is recognition of the approach that we have introduced over 18 months to achieve our ambitious yet realistic sustainability tarreceives.”
