Mannington Commercial, a manufacturer of commercial flooring products, announced that its Madison, GA, operations have achieved International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 14001 and 9001 in 2023. These recertifications demonstrate Mannington’s commitment to providing the highest quality and sustainable products in the industry.
The ISO 14001 recertification confirms the Madison operations have met the internationally agreed-upon standard to identify, monitor, and control environmental performance through efficient resource consumption and waste minimization. This verifies the company’s ongoing and continual improvement in those areas and further supports the company’s broader environmental goals.
In addition, Mannington Commercial’s parent company Mannington Mills, Inc., achieved ISO 9001 recertification. This reaffirms the company’s commitment to continual improvement and re-evaluating processes and procedures which are passed down through the organization. This assures customers, employees and communities that Mannington has reached the highest in customer, legal, regulatory requirements, as well as risk reduction in production areas, and employee development.
The Madison location manufactures, finishes and warehouses commercial luxury vinyl tile (LVT) and employs 285 associates or approximately 11% of Mannington Commercial employees. Since 2012, the Madison location has met critical environmental results across multiple operational areas. These results include: reducing scrap to landfill by 20% and increasing recycling from corporate sources.
To achieve the recertification, two different auditing companies spent 14 days reviewing and verifying multiple aspects of the company’s operations, including its environmental policies, procedures and permits; its associate competency and training programs; its manufacturing and warehouse operations; and its leadership commitment to continuous improvement.
ISO 14001 is an internationally agreed standard that sets out the requirements for an environmental management system. It helps organizations improve their environmental performance through more efficient use of resources and waste reduction, gaining a competitive advantage and the trust of stakeholders.
ISO 9001 is a globally recognized standard for quality management helping organizations improve their performance, meet customer expectations and demonstrate their commitment to quality. Its requirements define how to establish, implement, maintain, and continually improve a quality management system (QMS).
