Commenting on achieving the accreditation, Kevin Scott-Cowell MD of TS Technology Services said: "As a major supplier to the telecomms industry in the UK and Europe, it is important for our customers to know that we have robust environmental management systems in place which allow us to meet all legal requirements, improve working conditions for our employees and ultimately improve our services and processes for the benefit of our customers".
"Attaining this important environmental standard underlines our continued commitment to provide our customers with the highest quality products and services using processes which minimise the impact on the environment", added Scott-Cowell.
"We believe that this is an important milestone which will help us to achieve our business goals of significantly growing our customer base".
To gain accreditation, TS Technology Services was audited by an independent assessor earlier this year.
"This independent verification also means that our customers can be assured that the environmental management systems operating within TS meet the most stringent requirements eliminating the need for our customers to undertake further costly second party audits", said Scott-Cowell.
"Experience shows that those organisations who fully embrace ISO14001 certification do see clear net gains not just in environmental performance, but also in reducing costs and competing more effectively".
"I'd like to pay tribute to all our employees who worked extra hard to put in all the planning and procedures required to achieve this high level of compliance with environmental standards", he added.
