Camfil Farr is a global manufacturer of air filtration equipment and associated services.
In order to better understand customer requirements and improve the efficiency of its own business, Camfil Farr decided to implement the new energy management system standard, BS EN 16001.
The standard enables an organisation to develop and implement a policy, identify areas of significantly high energy consumption and target energy reductions.

- Recognition as a seriously sustainable company, operating to best practice
- Creation of a formalised energy policy and objectives
- Establishment of an energy-aware and continuous improvement culture
