| Environmental Policy |
|
To ensure that its mission is fulfilled, the Rockwool Group has drawn up an environmental policy. In accordance with this, our companies undertake:
-
to carry out an environmental analysis of all projects involving new production equipment or new products before they are initiated;
-
to have an environmental management system, which describes responsibility and control procedures, and to make constant improvements to this system;
to ensure that the factories do not cause problems for their neighbours of a more serious nature than is normal in an area also housing industry; |
 |
-
as a minimum, to comply with the conditions imposed on them by the regulatory authorities; if this is not happening in any given area, then to inform the authorities immediately and to take steps enabling compliance;
-
to maintain an open dialogue with stakeholders - customers, regulatory authorities, investors, employees, suppliers and neighbours - in order to ensure that relevant interests and requirements concerning environmental issues are met;
-
via the Group's environmental department, to carry out audits at the plants to assist the environmental work of the manufacturing companies.
The Group management structure allows for the individual companies, who know most about their own locality, to take care of local environmental activities. Our corporate environmental policy has the commitment of all the subsidiary companies and has been drawn up in consultation with their managing directors.
The Rockwool companies have acceded to the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC)'s Environmental Charter. |
