To achieve ISO certification, a series of audits were conducted for our integrated management system. The audits confirmed that we are meeting the compliance obligations for ISO 14001, and that we are operating in a responsible and sustainable manner. Henry Schein Dental UK demonstrated, via documented evidence, that as a company we understand our business risks and impact on the environment.

Becoming ISO certified is another important step in improving our facilities and promoting sustainability. Our four environmental focus areas are:

• Mitigating our impact on climate;
• Smart and efficient use of energy and water;
• Continually reducing waste to landfills;
• Recycling and reusing valuable resources.

By managing our activities to reduce pollution and to protect the environment, complying with the applicable compliance obligations, engaging Team Schein Members to identify, develop, and implement environmental and social projects and initiatives, and supporting our customers adopting better environmental practices, we can continue to work towards achieving a more sustainable future.
