The ISO 14001 standard provides a framework for businesses that want to enhance their environmental performance, including energy and waste management, in a systematic manner.

At Firstserv, we have implemented an Environmental Management System (EMS) that has earned ISO 14001 certification for our data centers and office in the United Kingdom.

We use the most efficient data centres in the UK, using free cooling, 100% renewable energy, a PuE (Power usage effectiveness) rating of 1.2 and environmental management policy externally assessed to ISO 14001 standards.

We also try to keep paper usage to a bare minimum in the office, only sending out electronic invoices, using the latest servers, latest computers equipment in the office with all appliances using A+ ratings.

This certification is subject to ongoing external assessment by the Centre for Assessment, with a full re-assessment occurring every three years.
