Environmental Policy Statement
Through an Environmental Policy Statement (EPS) Quantum Profile Systems Ltd (QPSL) supports sustainability. The impact the company and its processes may have on the environment is minimised by the application of an Environmental Management System. This is endorsed by ISO 14001 accreditation. Improvements that reduce waste, and the recycling of processed materials add to the company’s commitment to sustainability.
With regards to BREEAM and LEED the BRE advises that no OPSL Products gain credits under the Green Guide Specification, since they do not enhance any of the categories within these building certification schemes. However, QPSL works to ensure that LEAN and environmentally sustainable processes are applicable to the products it produces, and they all comply with latest REACH guidelines. QPSL is a Green Business member and supports the sustainable objectives of The Groundwork Trust.
