Recipharm goes ‘green’ with environmental management system

Recipharm’s Wasserburg facility achieves ISO 14001 and OHS&S 18001 standards

12-Mar-2012 - Germany

Recipharm AB achieved class leading standards at its Wasserburg facility securing - the Environmental Management system ISO 14001, and the occupational safety certification OHS&S 18001. This is the latest subsidiary in the Group to achieve the standard all of which have been accredited or are working towards accreditation.

Recipharm AB introduced a plan for the Wasserburg site to implement the system in June 2010 with the original completion date anticipated in April 2012.

Accepting the challenge meant reviewing and improving all systems in a structured and systematic way, and the full successful audit took place ahead of schedule (13 – 17 February, 2012) after just 18 months of preparation.

The audit successfully appraised the operational reliability of the environmental management system, and it was certified by the auditors without any major deviations. The auditors emphasized that the implementation of both norms - the environmental, health and safety audit to gain ISO 14001 (environmental), and OHS&S 18001 (occupational safety) - within such a short time frame was an outstanding performance.
