Posturite has been awarded ISO 14001 certification – the recognised international standard for environmental management. It is the cornerstone of the ISO 14000 series of environmental standards and the only one requiring certification by a third party.

CEO Ian Fletcher-Price said: “Although we are delighted to have this official recognition of our ‘green’ credentials, it really only confirms what we have been doing here for years. “We have long recognised the importance of sustainability in our manufacturing processes and Scandinavian producers like HAG and RH Form have been way ahead of the game in manufacturing chairs using recycled materials and recycling them again at their end of their life.

“The ISO 14001 seal confirms to our customers that we have the systems in place to meet internationally recognised environmental standards – something that many of them, quite rightly, will regard as important.”
