We have reached a sig­nif­i­cant mile­stone in our jour­ney of sus­tain­able devel­op­ment in our indus­try, as Islet Group has suc­cess­ful­ly achieved ISO 14001 cer­ti­fi­ca­tion. The ISO 14001 stan­dard is a glob­al­ly rec­og­nized frame­work for imple­ment­ing an Envi­ron­men­tal Man­age­ment Sys­tem (EMS).

Obtain­ing ISO 14001 cer­ti­fi­ca­tion under­scores our com­mit­ment to inno­va­tion, diverse work­ing and think­ing, and sus­tain­able growth.

Our path to ISO 14001 certification

With the deci­sion to pur­sue ISO 14001 cer­ti­fi­ca­tion, our goal was not only to meet the min­i­mum require­ments of the stan­dard but also to con­duct a thor­ough assess­ment of our orga­ni­za­tion and process­es, iden­ti­fy­ing areas where we can min­i­mize our envi­ron­men­tal foot­print and inte­grate sus­tain­able prac­tices into every aspect of our oper­a­tion. Being ISO 14001 cer­ti­fied brings long-term val­ue also to our key stake­hold­ers: employ­ees, cus­tomers and partners.

Dur­ing 2024, we devel­oped and launched Islet’s:

At Islet, we strive to make the world a bet­ter place with the lat­est tech­nolo­gies. Our val­ues are actions and demon­strat­ed in every­day deci­sions. We rec­og­nize that sus­tain­able devel­op­ment is not just a strate­gic pri­or­i­ty but a fun­da­men­tal respon­si­bil­i­ty. Our com­mit­ment to sus­tain­able prac­tices is inte­grat­ed into every aspect of our oper­a­tions, from min­i­miz­ing our envi­ron­men­tal impact to fos­ter­ing a diverse and inclu­sive cul­ture, eth­i­cal busi­ness prac­tices and social respon­si­bil­i­ty. Togeth­er, we can ensure a brighter, green­er future for all.

What does ISO 14001 cer­ti­fi­ca­tion mean in practice?

ISO 14001 cer­ti­fi­ca­tion sym­bol­izes a company’s com­mit­ment to the envi­ron­ment.

Our proac­tive approach to envi­ron­men­tal risk and change man­age­ment allows us to antic­i­pate and man­age poten­tial envi­ron­men­tal chal­lenges effec­tive­ly. ISO cer­ti­fi­ca­tion means that we have clear and mea­sur­able envi­ron­men­tal objec­tives and have inte­grat­ed envi­ron­men­tal con­sid­er­a­tions into our process­es, such as mak­ing pro­cure­ment deci­sions or choos­ing more sus­tain­able ways of trav­el, like opt­ing for train trav­el instead of flying.

ISO 14001 cer­ti­fi­ca­tion also stands for con­tin­u­ous improve­ment. We reg­u­lar­ly mon­i­tor our envi­ron­men­tal per­for­mance to make nec­es­sary adjust­ments. In addi­tion, we reg­u­lar­ly launch cam­paigns to pro­tect the Baltic Sea and aim to reach car­bon neu­tral­i­ty. Reduc­ing the amount of waste and recy­cling care­ful­ly is self-evi­dent to us.

We hope to also inspire oth­er com­pa­nies to incor­po­rate sus­tain­abil­i­ty into their core busi­ness strate­gies, Togeth­er, we can cre­ate a brighter, more sus­tain­able future for gen­er­a­tions to come.

In today’s world, where envi­ron­men­tal chal­lenges like cli­mate change and use of resources are crit­i­cal, ISO 14001 pro­vides a struc­tured approach for orga­ni­za­tions to address these issues. By adopt­ing this stan­dard, we demon­strate our com­mit­ment to reg­u­la­to­ry com­pli­ance and con­tin­u­ous envi­ron­men­tal improve­ment. Addi­tion­al­ly, ISO 14001 builds stake­hold­er trust and strength­ens our efforts to be pio­neers in sus­tain­able devel­op­ment. It high­lights our ded­i­ca­tion to a sus­tain­able future, com­bin­ing envi­ron­men­tal respon­si­bil­i­ty with sus­tain­able busi­ness growth.

ISO 14001 is a frame­work that is applic­a­ble to any orga­ni­za­tion, regard­less of it size or indus­try, and helps orga­ni­za­tions inte­grate envi­ron­men­tal man­age­ment into their core busi­ness strate­gies. It aligns envi­ron­men­tal objec­tives with over­all busi­ness goals, ensures com­pli­ance with envi­ron­men­tal laws and reg­u­la­tions, and pro­motes con­tin­u­ous improve­ment.
