OREANDA-NEWS. June 06, 2013. The SVEZA mill is the first in Russia to achieve Integrated Management System (IMS) certification. The Manturovsky mill achieved certification on three criteria: quality, environment and safety. An inspection of compliance with all the requirements will be carried out annually by a visiting committee, as the company said in a press release received by Lesprom Network.

The IMS certification confirms compliance with two or more management system standards. This enables companies to integrate their systems.

“The Sveza mill was the first of its competitors to achieve IMS certification. In doing so it has set an example of a socially responsible business,” says Lyudmila Greenberg, an expert in the field of quality management systems certification from the Regional Center of Certification.

Sveza is a modern, fast-growing group of companies, one of the leading players in the woodworking market. The company produces high-quality plywood from natural Russian birch and hold the world leadership in this sector.
