Certifications

Creative Recycling Systems (CRS) announces its receipt of the prestigious ISO 14001 Certification. ISO (International Organization for Standardization) is the world's largest developer of standards, and the ISO 14001 certification ensures that a company’s environmental management system (EMS) is of the highest quality. According to the ISO website, “ISO 14001 is a framework that inspires and channels the creativity of all members of an organization, making them active agents of change promoting environmental protection, resource conservation and improved efficiencies.”

The company underwent an intense years-long process to ensure that every possible environmental impact was carefully studied and measured. New systems were developed and implemented to reduce or eliminate any potentially harmful areas and to maximize the company’s positive effects of preserving our resources. The company’s health and safety practices were also carefully analyzed to obtain the highest possible standards. In order to receive the certification, outside auditors thoroughly inspected the company’s facility to attest that these standards and systems are upheld in the daily business operations.

All CRS employees have also been extensively trained on the company’s environmental policy and its commitment to properly managing health, safety and environmental issues. The auditors interviewed the employees to verify their knowledge of and dedication to the policies and procedures. The entire CRS team was instrumental in obtaining the certification and is proud of this distinction.

CEO and founder, Jon Yob says that the certification is part of CRS’ mission and vision to be the leader in the evolving electronics recycling industry. “We are continually improving our processes to ensure that we make the most positive impact on our environment by removing toxins and heavy metals from the waste stream and utilizing the most innovative and environmentally sound automated electronics recycling techniques. It is extremely rewarding for these efforts to be recognized with such an important honor.”
