ISO14001

ISO14001 is the code name for environmental management system certification. The ISO 14000 series of standards is an environmental management system standard developed by the International Organization for Standardization. It is formulated in response to the increasingly serious global environmental pollution and ecological destruction, as well as major environmental issues such as ozone layer depletion, global climate change, and the disappearance of biodiversity, which threaten the future survival and development of humanity. It conforms to the development of international environmental protection and is based on the needs of international economic and trade development.

Many countries have explicitly stipulated that companies producing products should obtain ISO14001 certification. Failure to obtain ISO14001 certification has become a technical obstacle for companies to gain a larger domestic market share and engage in international trade. Therefore, only by implementing the ISO14001 environmental management system can companies improve their comprehensive management level and image, reduce environmental risks, and better occupy domestic and foreign markets.

The need for enterprises to achieve benign and long-term development through ISO14001 standard certification can effectively promote the coordinated and sustainable development of the enterprise's environment and economy, leading the enterprise towards a path of benign and long-term development. It is necessary to fulfill social responsibility. Currently, environmental pollution poses a great threat to human survival and has attracted the attention of countries around the world. Protecting the environment that humans rely on for survival is the responsibility of the whole world and society, and every enterprise has the responsibility to strive to minimize environmental impact. It can reduce environmental risks caused by pollution accidents or violations of laws and regulations. Increase opportunities for enterprises to obtain preferential credit and insurance policies.

The ISO14000 series standards are ultimately a set of management standards. It is the crystallization of environmental management experience in industrialized countries, and when formulating national standards, different countries' situations were taken into account, striving to make the standards universally applicable.
