Committed
to environmental care
FERROXCUBE is committed to environmental care. This includes developing
'clean' processes, reducing industrial waste, eliminating hazardous substances
from our products and reducing the environmental impact of our packaging.
All our manufacturing sites meet or are set up to meet the ISO14001 environmental
standard.
Innovations in packaging
With packaging, in
particular we have made significant progress in recent years to reduce
its environmental
impact.
Life-cycle
studies
We are prepared to participate in life-cycle studies on our products to
quantify the environmental burden they present, and we undertake to make
data on the chemical composition of our products as well as other environmental
data available to our customers.
These studies
are also an essential requirement of the ISO14001 certification and improvement
process to which we are fully committed.
