TAMPA, FL. (June 3, 2010) – Sypris Electronics, LLC, a subsidiary of Sypris Solutions, Inc., has been awarded ISO 14001 certification for its facility located in Tampa, Florida. The Company was awarded the certification by NSF International, a third party auditor of environmental management systems.
ISO 14001:2004 is an internationally recognized standard, developed by the International Organization for Standardization, for evaluating and certifying environmental management systems. Although ISO 14001 is strictly voluntary, it provides a framework to help organizations minimize the impact of their operations on the environment and maintain compliance with related laws and regulations. Certification to ISO standards requires an organization to systematically manage, measure, and communicate its environmental program to internal and external stakeholders.
“ISO 14001 is a global benchmark of an organization's proactive commitment to understanding, managing and continuously improving its environmental impact,” stated John Walsh, President of Sypris Electronics. “Only organizations with excellent environmental policies and procedures qualify for this certification. We are proud to join the many companies across various industries and countries that have also committed to environmental stewardship.”
