Frequently Asked Questions

How does this relate to ISO 14001?
Our Green Manufacturing Certification can complement or build upon ISO 14001. While ISO 14001 focuses on environmental management systems, our certification specifically assesses sustainability performance and outcomes in manufacturing operations.
Can multi-site manufacturers get a single certification?
Yes, we offer multi-site certification programs. Each facility is assessed individually, but you can receive enterprise-level recognition when all sites meet certification standards.
What data do we need to prepare?
You'll need energy and water consumption data, waste generation and disposal records, material inputs, emissions data (if available), and documentation of your environmental policies and procedures.
How long is the certification valid?
Certification is valid for 3 years with annual surveillance audits to verify continued compliance. Recertification audits are conducted at the end of each cycle.
Do you provide support during implementation?
Yes, we offer optional consulting services to help you implement required systems and practices. This is separate from the certification audit to maintain independence.
