BLOOMFIELD HILLS, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
TriMas Corporation (NASDAQ: TRS) — a diversified global manufacturer of
engineered and applied products — announced today that its Monogram
Aerospace Fasteners business has been awarded certification of
compliance with the ISO 14001:2004 Environmental Management Standard
(EMS). With more than 120 years of experience, Monogram delivers
innovative, high quality aerospace fasteners and products to its
customers and has established itself as a recognized leader in blind
bolt technology to the aerospace industry.
"This certification is a validation of Monogram's continued focus on the
environment and commitment to the highest standards of quality
management," said David Adler, president of Monogram. "ISO 14001
certification is globally accepted as the Environmental Management
System standard, providing a systematic approach to controlling
environmental hazards and reducing the risk of accidents, while
improving business practices and processes."
The EMS was developed using the same focus as Monogram's current
process-based Quality Management System (QMS) template. The innovative
process illustrates correlations between recyclable, renewable and
non-renewable resource inputs and outputs, applicable environmental
regulations, assigned job functions and associated work procedures.
Monogram was dedicated to achieving this certification to ensure
environmental compliance and sustainability of operations, to better
serve its major customers and to increase its competitiveness within the
aerospace fastener industry. It has identified its first two
environmental objectives as achieving reductions in both the consumption
of resources and in the generation of wastewater and hazardous wastes.
Monogram is already certified to the AS9100 Rev C and the ISO 9001:2008
Quality Management System Standards. The certification is registered
through the DNV Business Assurance and is valid October 10, 2012 through
October 10, 2015.
