Integrated
management system

Today, APPM operates an integrated management system (IMS) that meets the requirements of a number of international standards (ISO 9001, ISO 50001:2018, ISO 14001, ISO 45001). IMS implemented at APPM combines the quality management system, еnergy management system, environmental management system, and health & safety management system.

The fact that the IMS meets the requirements of these standards is proved by the certificates of conformity issued to the Mill by an independent organization. This organization carries out inspection audits of APPM to confirm the validity of the certificates on an annual basis.

The key objective for which APPM has established and developed the IMS is to achieve tangible results in various areas: maximize customers' satisfaction with our products, continuously minimize the Mill's negative environmental impact, minimize any possible health effects for the employees, etc.
