CFS stays responsible with a strict Environmental Management System

Environmental responsibility is a priority at CFS.

Social responsibility is a must for all businesses these days, especially in the era of climate change. Corporations must learn to achieve profit and success while doing little or no harm to the environment. This is why Custom Foam Systems Ltd. (CFS) adheres to an Environmental Management System (EMS) that commits the company to managing environmental matters as an integral part of its business – helping to build a better tomorrow today.

Compliance, risk reduction, and communication

CFS relentlessly strives to maintain and improve its manufacturing and business management systems with the EMS. The company has put stringent policies, procedures, and measurements in place at every level to drive action towards this goal. The entire team focuses on contributing to best practices while complying with federal, provincial, and local laws pertaining to environmental safety.

The Environmental Management System to which CFS adheres is based on three main principles: compliance, risk reduction, and communication. First, CFS complies with all relevant environmental legislation and regulations. The company protects the environment by striving to minimize waste pollution constantly through better production processes.

Regarding the second principle, CFS seeks opportunities beyond regulatory compliance requirements to lessen its effect on the environment. The company strives to minimize releases to the air, land, and water, as well as the levels and toxicity of waste that it generates, while disposing all waste safely and legally. CFS investigates recycling and waste minimization options when possible and manages resource like water, energy, land, and wood in environmentally sensitive ways.

For the final principle of its Environmental Management System, CFS communicates this policy to all staff and makes it available to all stakeholders. The EMS provides the framework for setting and reviewing environmental targets and continuous improvement goals. The System must be appropriate to the nature, scale, and environmental effects of the CFS facility, so the company reviews it periodically to keep it current and compliant.

CFS always complies with environmental legislation as a minimum level of performance and commits to exceptional environmental stewardship by conserving natural resources, preventing pollution, and minimizing waste.
