'In the Past I have used several different companies to obtain ISO Certification for my clients.  Most recently I used UKICM who I found to be by far the best I have come across, in particular because they simply 'tell it like it is' in words my clients and I can understand. They work quickly and efficiently ensuring the standards are achievable and give great ongoing support.

I trust UKICM to do what they say they are going to do, when they say they are going to do it and commend them and the excellent quality of their documentation to anyone thinking of going down the ISO Certification route.'

ISO 14001 is widely recognised as the foundation standard of the ISO 14000 series.  Its sole purpose is to specify a clear framework of control for a company's Environmental Management System.

  •  ISO 14001:2004 is the internationally recognised standard for an organisation’s Environmental Management System.
  •  The ISO 14000 standards series emerged primarily as a result of the Uruguay round of the GATT negotiations and the Rio Summit on the Environment held in 1992.
  •  ISO 14001:2004 has emerged as the standard most likely to be specified in client tenders to prove environmental credentials.
  •  ISO 14000 elements provide businesses a flexible framework for managing and continually improving their environmental programs.  Utilizing ISO 14001 enables companies to merge existing and new environmental programs into one coherent system to efficiently manage all their environmental activities.
