Compliance

Quality / Health and Safety / Environment

Quality is of the utmost importance to the HM Group and is evident in our product ranges.

  • All our products undergo stringent quality controls in order to guarantee safety in use. We are certified to ISO 9001/2015. We are audited annually and re-certified every three years.
  • Part of our philosophy entails the recycling of waste products in a responsible manner, taking special care to reduce our impact on the environment.
  • We have adopted an environmental management system that is based on the ISO standard.
  • As we are aware of the impact the rising cost of energy has on our business, we are continuously improving our production processes for optimal cost-efficiency. A major component of this includes improving the energy efficiency of our production processes and substituting fossil fuel with renewable energy solutions where possible.
