Evans Environmental Management System

Our environmental policy aims to minimize environmental impacts concerning our activities, products, and services, as defined by our Environmental Management System. Our goals are to:

  • Comply with applicable legal and other requirements that relate to environmental aspects.
  • Set environmental objectives to prevent and reduce pollution and waste.
  • Minimize the consumption of resources.
  • Commit to continual improvement of the Environmental Management System to enhance environmental performance, and,
  • Educate, train, motivate, and communicate our policies to employees and help them carry out tasks in an environmentally sustainable manner.

Our commitment is not just the words on this page; we have taken steps to improve and strive towards our goals, including the following environmental and health certifications.

ISO 14001 Environmental Management System

iso-14001-sai-global-environmental-red-certified-webEvans' Environmental Management System complies with the requirements of ISO 14001:2015. We identify and quantify our products and services to minimize our carbon footprint and reduce waste. Our procedures help manage immediate and long-term environmental impacts of the design and manufacturing of consoles and millwork solutions. This includes controlling environmental risks in our wood fabrication, metal fabrication, and assembly facilities.

Our goal is to improve our environmental performance, and because we already use ISO management systems 9001 for quality management and ISO 45001 for occupational health and safety, this means that ISO 14001 can be easily integrated into these existing systems. Using ISO 14001 also helps encourage our suppliers and partners to strive for the same environmental goals. At Evans, we identify and analyze all the environmental aspects of our operations to ensure those that may pose a significant impact on the environment are under control and prioritized for improvement.
