Ultralife currently operates two facilities that are registered to the requirements of ISO 14001:2004.
Our Newark, NY facility was registered by QMI, Inc. in January 2008.
Our ABLE manufacturing facility in Shenzhen, China is also registered to these requirements.
In concert with our Quality Management System, our focus at each facility is on a waste-free workplace
and continuous improvement of our operations.
By implementing the key elements of this standard, Ultralife ensures that its operations are compliant
with legal and other requirements and that environmental risks are appropriately identified and managed.
About ISO 14001:2004
ISO 14001 is the international standard that specifies an Environmental Management System framework against
which an organization can be registered. With ISO 14001:2004, clauses have been clarified and updated to be in
harmony with ISO 9001:2000. This highly effective, globally accepted framework establishes and continually
improves applicable management system processes. ISO 14001 can also be used as a guide to upgrade a company's
present environmental management system in accordance with an internationally recognized set of requirements.
The procedures and elements of the ISO 14001 registration are based on sound environmental management principles.
It contains only those requirements that can be objectively audited, and addresses the fundamental aspects of a
company's operations. It can be used to integrate the environmental system with the overall organizational management
structure to enhance performance and continual improvement.
