Plastic packaging manufacturer, Measom Freer has demonstrated its continued commitment to responsible business following a successful assessment of their ISO:14001 and ISO: 9001 certifications.

Following a recertification assessment conducted by the BSI audit team, family-owned Measom Freer has successfully retained its environmental and quality management certificates with no non-conformances.

The successful recertification with no non-conformances is a testament to the ongoing dedication and performance of the business in relation to the ISO:14001 and ISO:9001 accreditations. 

Established in 1937, Measom Freer is a fourth-generation family run business specialising in the design, manufacture and supply of injection and blow moulded plastic packaging.

Producing more than 20 million plastic bottles, scoops, closures and containers each year from its state-of-the-art facility on Chartwell Drive in Leicester, the company prides itself on delivering quality, sustainable packaging solutions.

Originally certified for ISO:9001 in 1991 and ISO:14001 in 2018, the business maintains an integrated quality, environmental and health & safety management system which demonstrates its responsibility to their people, customers and impact on the environment.

The company is committed to replacing equipment with energy efficient alternatives and has recently invested in a new blow moulding machine which will help improve production efficiency via automation and lower energy consumption.

ISO 14001 is the internationally recognised standard for environmental management systems and provides a framework to take proactive action to measure and minimise a company’s environmental impact.

With a strong focus on the customer and continual improvement, ISO 9001 is a globally recognised quality management system which helps organisations monitor performance, meet customer expectations and demonstrate their commitment to quality. 

Measom Freer Production Manager Ben Freer commented: “Special thanks are in order for our fantastic Quality Control team for another great result! We pride ourselves on delivering quality, sustainable packaging solutions and are extremely proud to maintain both ISO standards.”
