Sustainable development for the environment People all over the world have seen the effects of industrial evolution, and there is growing concern over the global warming and climate change. So, it's the responsibility of every company – and every individual – to actively protect our planet's future. At ViskoTeepak, we've implemented systems and procedures for waste management and energy control. We minimize and recycle all waste that's generated through our operations. We have also implemented air and water-cleaning systems that minimize the negative environmental effects on our surroundings.

Health & Safety The health and safety of our employees and the community will always come first with ViskoTeepak. The viscose process and casing production imply certain risks, so our success depends entirely on the assurance of safety in every aspect of our operation. We follow the guidelines and audit ourselves through the established routines of the BRC Packaging standard.

We also try to identify and anticipate health hazards in the work environment and work with effective risk management. We monitor all parts of our operations and work for a "safety first" culture. We motivate each other by using common courtesy in everything we do, throughout the entire organization. Moreover, we take full responsibility for our actions and will always accept accountability in the event a defect or other issue is found.

The highest level of certification ViskoTeepak has the highest level of certification in the casing industry. We accept our responsibility when it comes to quality, health, safety and the environment. For example, did you know that ViskoTeepak, in the early 1990's, was the first plant in the casing business to achieve the ISO 9001 quality certification and an ISO 14001 environmental certification. Since then, it has never failed one audit. ViskoTeepak was also the first company to obtain the BRC packaging certification for all of its cellulose, fibrous and plastic product lines.
