Ansell recently announced that Ansell Textiles Lanka, one of its manufacturing plants in Sri Lanka, has become its first facility to receive the ISO 50001:2018 certification.
This significant accomplishment highlights Ansell’s commitment to incorporating energy-efficient practices and technologies into our manufacturing processes.
ISO 50001:2018 is an internationally recognized energy management system that helps organizations better manage their energy-intensive assets and improve productivity. Improved energy performance can provide rapid benefits for an organization by maximizing its use of energy sources and energy-related assets, reducing both cost
and consumption.
The ISO 50001 certification breaks new ground in Ansell’s commitment to integrate a systematic energy productivity improvement mindset into its manufacturing operations. Joining Ansell’s long-term decarbonization efforts, this certification will further Ansell’s goal to achieve Net Zero by 2040 for
its operations.
This achievement also underscores Ansell’s actions to deliver on the commitments made when joining the Climate Group’s EP100 initiative last year.
“Through its journey, ATL actively involves and is always dedicated to implement a systematic approach of energy efficiency superior to ad hoc or traditional project-based approaches of improving energy performance combining best practices in project management, energy monitoring, and energy awareness along with an energy policy that governs an organization’s approach towards energy use
and performance.
Achieving ISO 50001 helps the ATL to be at the forefront in efficient energy management of manufacturing practices – a key driver in meeting the expectations of our customers and our ambitious climate targets,” said Ramesh Nanayakkara, Senior Director/Plant GM.
