At Novum, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. As a company committed to reducing environmental impact and driving energy-efficient innovation, we are proud to announce that Novum has achieved ISO 14001 certification—the globally recognised standard for environmental management systems.

This certification reinforces our dedication to sustainable business practices, ensuring that our operations meet international standards for environmental responsibility while continually striving for improvement in reducing our ecological footprint.

A Commitment to Sustainability

ISO 14001 is a benchmark standard for organisations that prioritise environmental management and sustainability. Achieving this certification required Novum to undergo a comprehensive evaluation of our environmental policies, waste management strategies, energy efficiency measures, and overall commitment to minimising environmental impact.

Sustainability at Novum goes beyond producing the most sustainable freezers on the planet. Our dual-temperature supermarket freezers are the only ones to achieve ENERGY STAR accreditation for our customers, setting a new industry benchmark for efficiency. However, our commitment extends beyond product innovation—it’s about what we do in terms of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG). ISO 14001 supports and complements our ESG goals and initiatives, reinforcing our dedication to responsible sourcing, waste reduction, employee well-being, and ethical business practices. The integration of ISO 14001 into our management system enhances our overall sustainability strategy and contributes to improved ESG performance.

Jim Greene, CEO of Novum, expressed his enthusiasm about this accomplishment:
“Sustainability is not just a goal at Novum—it’s a core value embedded in our operations and product innovation. Achieving ISO 14001 certification is a significant milestone that validates our commitment to reducing our environmental footprint while delivering ultra-low energy refrigeration solutions to our customers. This recognition is a testament to our team’s dedication to continuous improvement and environmental responsibility.”

What This Means for Our Customers and Partners

For our customers and partners, ISO 14001 certification signifies our ongoing commitment to sustainable manufacturing, responsible sourcing, and energy efficiency. It reassures our stakeholders that Novum is dedicated to minimising waste, optimising energy use, and adhering to best practices in environmental management.

For our employees, it strengthens our mission to operate responsibly, fostering a culture of environmental awareness and innovation.

Looking to the Future

Achieving ISO 14001 is not the end of our sustainability journey—it is a stepping stone toward even greater environmental advancements. At Novum, we remain focused on leading the way in ultra-low energy refrigeration and developing solutions that protect our planet for future generations.

We extend our gratitude to our team, customers, and partners who share our vision for a greener, more sustainable future.
