Polar King International recently achieved ISO certifications 14001:2015 and 9001:2015 for environmental management and quality management, respectively. These certifications extend to its subsidiary companies, Polar King Mobile and Polar Leasing Company.
ISO 14001: 2015, the leading environmental management standard (EMS), is earned through enhancement of environmental performance, fulfillment of compliance obligations and achievement of environmental objectives.
ISO 9001: 2015 is earned by implementing a quality management system that ensures products and services consistently meet customer and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements, improve customer satisfaction, and conform to specified requirements.
“Meeting the stringent requirements for these certifications provides further substantiation of the commitment Polar King International, Polar King Mobile, and Polar Leasing Company have to continually improving management systems and enhance customer satisfaction of organizational knowledge,” said Greg Rosenfeld, Polar King quality manager.
“All three companies under the Polar King International umbrella are passionate about environmental protection, making the ISO 14001: 2015 certification a particularly proud accomplishment. We are dedicated to meeting and exceeding our compliance obligations and understanding and improving on the environmental implications brought about by our activities, products and services.”
According to Polar King International, the efforts set forth to achieve these certifications advanced their management systems through incorporation of enhanced documentation regarding continual improvements projects, corrective actions, objectives, and risk assessments.
ISO, the International Organization for Standardization, is an independent, non-governmental organization that develops voluntary, consensus-based, market-relevant international standards that support innovation and provide solutions to global challenges.
“To me, these are two of the greatest accomplishments for everyone that is part of the Polar King International, Polar King Mobile, and Polar Leasing Company family,” Rosenfeld said. “These certifications could not be achieved without the full support of everyone, starting with top management.”
