The Massey Ferguson factory at Beauvais has received ISO 14001 certification for its Environmental Management System (EMS).
This is an internationally agreed standard that provides a framework to identify, monitor and control environmental performance through resource consumption, waste minimisation and impact reduction based on the company’s priorities and targets.
“We are committed to setting near-term operations-wide emission reductions. Achieving ISO 14001 certification helps advance sustainable practices across all areas of our footprint, including water, waste, energy and emissions” said Thierry Lhotte, vice-president & managing director MF Europe & Middle East.
“By developing a formal EMS that is ISO 14001 certified, our Dealers, Distributors and End-customers can be assured that we’re complying to best practices that manage and minimize our impact on the environment as well as provide customers with solutions to support their transition to more sustainable practices. It is an important accomplishment and the direct result of the commitment and hard work by our teams.”
Since 2023, the company has committed to operating as a responsible business, defining four sustainability pillars to guide its practices and business growth.
“Our 4 sustainable growth pillars include sustainable solutions for farmers, sustainable operations, people potential & engagement and value creation in our local ecosystem,” added Thierry.
“Environmental stewardship has been a long-standing commitment in our brand mission. Many thanks to the team that has overseen the certification process over the past few months. I’m proud of our teams in Beauvais and of the positive signal this certification is sending after the unprecedented times we went through.
“Last but not least, ISO 14001 certification underpins our ambitious goals of reducing of operations environmental footprint and adds to the ISO 9001 Certification awarded since July 2015, demonstrating the establishment of the best possible and sustainable organization to meet the requirement of its business for the benefit of our customers, with quality management system.”
