Merryhill IDM secures ISO14001 Environmental Management Standard

1st May 2008 - Merryhill Envirotec Ltd, the asbestos removal specialist headquartered in Romsey, Hampshire, along with sister company IDM, who specialise in commercial fire and flood disaster recovery, has been awarded accreditation to international environmental standard ISO14001.  ISO14001 is the corner stone standard of a series of international standards on environmental management. It provides a framework of control for a sophisticated Environmental Management System and a supporting audit programme, against which an organisation can be certified by a third party.  Merryhill Envirotec, the only UK asbestos management company selected to remove asbestos from the site of the Olympic Park for 2012, and IDM, well known regionally for restoring Southampton University’s Mountbatten building after the devastating 2005 fire, have spent 12 months establishing systems, controls and policies to position themselves as the leading combined UK contractor in their joint industries in terms of environmental management and control. Paul Fox, Director of Business Development for the group, said “This opportunity to demonstrate our commitment to environmental management, especially in such heavily legislated industries as the ones we operate in, will add demonstrable value to the services we offer clients.” He continued, “Our local staff have worked incredibly hard to achieve this award, and our enhanced environmental reputation reflects very positively on them.”
