News27/05/2008 - Argos Direct achieves ISO 14001
Argos Direct's Marsh Leys Distribution Centre (DC) has gained the Internationally recognised environmental management standard ISO 14001. This top award is in recognition of its work in managing waste, recycling and energy consumption effectively. Marsh Leys DC started the programme of work in February and were delighted to achieve recognition in July. Delivery service manager, Terry Warburton, said that receiving the accreditation was a "fantastic achievement." Gaining ISO 14001 in just four months means the DC has saved 50 per cent of the accreditation budget and won glowing praise from the official assessor, who commented: "The awareness and commitment of everyone on site to not only achieve the award but to continue making improvements and reducing the operation's environmental impact was clearly visible." <ENDS> For further information, please contact: Notes to EditorsThe British Accreditation Bureau is the leading certification body for accrediting people, services and organisations.
