QUALITY /
ISO 9001 is the internationally recognised reference standard for the quality management of any organisation that intends to respond both to the need for increased effectiveness and efficiency in internal processes and to growing market competition, by improving customer satisfaction and loyalty.
The primary purpose of ISO 9001 is the pursuit of customer satisfaction regarding the products and services provided, as well as the continuous improvement of company performance, allowing us to ensure our clients that the quality of our goods and services is maintained and improved over time.
We have achieved the ISO 9001:2015 Certification for our sites’ guidance and coordination activities.

ENVIRONMENT
ISO 14001 is a voluntary international standard, applicable to any type of public or private organisation, which specifies the requirements for environmental management systems.
Achieving this certification is a reflection of our dedication to legal compliance and awareness about environmental commitment, about what can be done to reduce environmental impact, and how it can be managed to improve environmental performance.

PRODUCT SAFETY
The IFS (International Food Standard) aims to encourage the effective selection of mass-retail food suppliers, based on their ability to supply products that are safe and compliant with contractual specifications as well as legal requirements.
The IFS Food standard is the result of the cooperation between representatives of Italian, German and French retailers, and is a model recognised both in Europe and in the rest of the world.

SUSTAINABILITY OF RAW MATERIALS
The Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®), founded in 1993 in Canada, is a non-governmental, non-profit organisation, which includes members of environmental and social groups, indigenous communities, consumer associations, forest owners, technicians, certification bodies, and wood processing and marketing enterprises.
The standard is applicable to materials of forestry origin (wood and wood derivatives and paper) with which various types of certifiable products can be made (e.g. chairs, furniture, books, tissue products, etc.), to wood-based products, and to non-wood forest products and/or recycled materials.

ENERGY
ISO 50001 is the standard that specifies the requirements for creating, starting, maintaining, and improving an Energy Management System.
At Cartiere Carrara we have made the requirements of the standard our own, so we can now rely on an Energy Management System based on the measurement of electrical and thermal energy consumption, data collection, and detailed analysis, in order to optimise the production process and constantly improve our baseline in terms of energy consumed per kilogram of paper produced.
In addition to implementing actions aimed to improve processes’ energy efficiency, we pay constant attention to the rational use of energy and to the use of renewable energy sources, as our contribution to cleaner and more environmentally friendly technology. All this ensures that our employees are sensitive to the topic of energy, and that each individual plays their part to achieve these objectives.

HEALTH AND SAFETY AT WORK
ISO 45001 represents an organisational tool that allows companies to manage worker safety in an organic and systematic way, without upsetting their organisational structure, focusing on the following requirements:
- Implementation of methods for controlling activities related to identified significant risks, including processes such as design and maintenance.
- Preparation of measures to identify, prevent, and control possible accidental events (accidents and near misses) and emergencies.
- Monitoring and measuring of system performances for health and safety, as well as for legislative compliance.
- Definition and implementation of systematic (in case of injuries, accidents, non-compliance, corrective and preventive actions) and periodic checks on the adequacy of the management system.
- Identification and assessment of risks and dangers connected to activities carried out by third parties at the organisation’s site.

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
The SA 8000 international standard is a management model that aims to enhance and protect all personnel falling within the area of control and influence of the organisations that adopt it. The standard allows companies to:
- Improve human resources’ conditions
- Promote ethical and fair treatment of human resources
- Embrace international human rights conventions
The SA 8000 standard represents the international certification standard that defines the voluntary requirements that employers must comply with in the workplace, including workers’ rights, workplace conditions, and management systems. This standard represents a tool for us to measure the degree to which we take responsibility towards our employees and the community that lives in our territory.
