National Petrochemical Industrial Company Achieves First with RC 14001:2015 Certification

November 29, 2016

ABS Quality Evaluations, Inc. issues first certificate globally for RC 14001:2015.

(Houston) ABS Quality Evaluations, Inc. (ABS QE), a subsidiary of Õ¬Äе¼º½, has awarded the National Petrochemical Industrial Company (NATPET) of Saudi Arabia the first issued RC 14001:2015 certificate globally. The RC14001® Technical Specification (2015 edition) combines elements of the American Chemistry Council's (ACC) Responsible Care® initiative with those of the ISO Environmental Management Systems Standard, ISO 14001:2015). This Technical Specification was recently revised in 2015 and enables a company to obtain, through an application and audit process, a certification that its management system conforms to both the ISO 14001 and RC14001 requirements.

"This recognition is a significant achievement for NATPET and further strengthens our commitments and promise for a better future through an improved organization," says Jamal J. Malaikah, President and COO of NATPET. "This requires us to continually increase our competitiveness, assure operations with the least possible impacts on the environment and enhance efficiency and effectiveness in our business to promote the safety and wellbeing of our employees,  community and business partners."

"We are pleased to issue the first certificate globally for RC 14001:2015, which is a milestone for both ABS QE and our client," says Dominic Townsend, Vice President of ABS QE.
