Novoceram obtained ISO 14001 certification in 2009 for its environmental management system aimed at continuously developing new ideas and procedures to reduce the environmental impact of its activities. Novoceram has been committed for many years to environmental protection and thus has a control tool that enables it to manage the environmental impact of its activities at various levels. In addition, Novoceram has set precise objectives for environmental protection, which are often much more stringent than those set by current regulations and which are certified year by year by an independent certification body.
