Our Environmental Policy
UEI is committed to protecting the environment, ensuring compliance with all applicable environmental laws and regulations, and meeting the needs of our customers. We continually investigate and implement activities that reduce our environmental footprint, improve efficiency, and help our customers meet their sustainability objectives.
Our Environmental Data
We believe that you cannot manage what you cannot measure. To better understand our environmental footprint, we launched a global effort to collect, analyze, and verify our environmental data. Key metrics include our energy and water use, waste output, and the emissions associated with our operations and our value chain.
Environmental Management Systems
To operate in a manner that upholds responsible resource use and environmental footprint reduction, each of our manufacturing facilities maintains an effective environmental management system (EMS) that is regularly audited and certified to the ISO 14001:2015 standard.
Our EMS programs
- Establish policies, procedures, and action frameworks for the manufacturing facility.
- Outline site-specific environmental goals and objectives.
- Identify risks and the controls required to mitigate risks.
- Recommend measurement and monitoring cadence.
Product Sustainability
When we reduce emissions associated with production, we help reduce our customer’s value chain emissions; however, we can further contribute to our customer’s sustainability journey by offering sustainable products. We understand that our products and our packaging have an impact on the environment, and we are continuously seeking opportunities to reduce this footprint.
