Laticrete’s Shanghai Building Material Co. in China has earned top-ranking ISO 14001 certification for minimizing negative effects on the environment.
The wholly-owned Shanghai manufacturing facility, opened in the Spring of 2008, has been certified ISO 14001 for its design and implementation of an environmental management system that’s been proven to reduce energy costs and wastes while minimizing the facilities negative impact on the environment.
