Granby, Qc, Monday January 18th, 2016 – On January 13th, Polyform has been certified ECORESPONSIBLETM, level 1 – ENGAGEMENT. This certification aims to elaborate an action plan in order to maximize the management of sustainable development.

In scope of its ECORESPONSIBLETM certification, Polyform commits to enhance its internal communication, elaborate a responsible purchasing politic (including responsible management of raw materials), improve its waste management using the 4RU (rethink the needs, reduce at the source, reuse, recycle and upgrade) and to ameliorate its energy performance.

An action plan has been designed to meet all those strategies and will be applied at every level of the business. Thereby, Polyform will optimize the management of sustainable development in its head office as well as in its plastic manufacturing and recycling sites.

This certification agrees with the new Polyform mission, which is to “Design and manufacture innovative and integrated products and quality plastic solutions, be responsive to our customers and partners needs, all the while promoting a sustainable development approach.” The business has been including sustainable development, for already many years, to its business proposals and henceforth wishes to be a reference not only for its partners, but also for its community.
