ENVIRONMENTAL CERTIFICATIONS
As a manufacturing company that is committed
to being a responsible business, we are proud to
be ISO 14001:2015 certified for our Environmental Management System, which verifies our compliance with standards related to remoulding of tyres and associated activities (see Figure 3). Over the past decade we have taken action to reduce our energy use, whilst also increasing our recycling of both tyre and non-tyre related waste.
As well as this, our retread tyres generate 70% less carbon dioxide than a new tyre, meaning there are fewer emissions
being released into the atmosphere.
