For what concerns its MISSION and ITS ENVIRONMENTAL AND QUALITY POLICY, Formula decided to include principles and actions which constantly lean towards the philosophy of supplying the best products and services, in order to ensure the maximum respect and protection for the environmental balances.
As a matter of fact Formula gives particular attention to the safety of both the several systems and the working station applied.
In order to make those commitments concrete, the company decided to develop a management system to line up to UNI EN ISO 14001 AND 9001:2000 which allowed Formula to get the ISO 9001:2000 and in 2007 also the integrated certificate environment and quality.

What does a quality and environmental management system really mean?

A system describes a planned structure, the processes and procedures through which the company develops its own activities.
Our environmental and quality management system has been developed for the sake of both the customers’ exigencies and expectations.
All of this it’s possible without forgetting to guarantee a constant control and improvement of the environmental impact, which comes our from the ordinary company’s activities.

How is it possible to accomplish these goals?

In order to understand its critical aspects and therefore to guarantee some gradual improvements, a deep and detailed analysis of the company’s processes is certainly necessary. Besides both a constant staff sensitization and a proper training are able to make people perfectly aware of the serious impact of their actions both on the quality and on the environment.

What does it really mean to be certified according to the ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 rules?

In order to inspect and certify that FORMULA is able to apply the principles and guide lines suitable for the protection of the fixed environmental balances and quality standards, we decided to contact a third and impartial board called TUV, which is internationally recognize and able to verified the correct application of the rules regularly.
