In response to the growing need to identify and reduce the impact our products and services have on the environment, John Crane’s management team has committed to the investment and implementation of Environmental Management Systems for each of our worldwide manufacturing sites. These systems are modeled to be in compliance with the ISO 14001 standard, which assists companies in the creation and maintenance of an Environmental Management System.

Certification to the ISO 14001 standard demonstrates John Crane’s commitment to proactively addressing our impact on the global environment.

ISO 14001 is the internationally recognized standard for Environmental Management Systems. The ISO 14001 standard seeks to synchronize valuable environmental principles and practices with a goal of helping companies determine the environmental issues associated with their activities, and to manage them successfully. While the standard does not contain specific performance requirements, it does include requirements for commitment to the prevention of pollution, as well as compliance with regulatory requirements. More importantly, it recognizes this company’s positive impact on the environment, achieved through managed performance and continual improvement.
