Leading the Way in Sustainability.
Owlett-Jaton is the first and only fasteners and fixings wholesaler in the UK to be awarded Environmental Accreditation ISO 14001:2015.
The ISO 14001 accreditation for environmental management, demonstrates that we take our environmental performance seriously and continually try to improve our environmental responsibilities, to be more sustainable.
With sustainability being at the forefront of everyone’s minds, we are becoming increasingly concerned with the environmental impact caused by the industry. Achieving this accreditation has enabled us to demonstrate to our customers we are committed to reducing our environmental impact.
Reducing waste and energy is primarily beneficial to the environment but it also provides additional benefits, improving efficiencies and reducing operational costs. The ISO 14001 Environmental Management System will continually monitor and improve our environmental performance, from sourcing to supply, to ensure best industrial practice and compliance with all relevant legislation.
