An environmental commitment: the Right Snow and the ISO14001 certification

Initiated in 2005, the “Right Snow Production” program aims at implementing the most advanced techniques, equipment and processes in order to allow optimal and controlled management resources of snowmaking (water and energy). The goal is to make possible an optimal use, while safeguarding energy and water resources. This program lies within the broader scope of a thought on the environmental integration of the practices related to the developments of snow production equipment.
In that respect, Johnson Controls has engaged into a ISO14001 certification process (environmental management standards) which ended in March 2008 with the successful certification of the company. The scope of the ISO14001 certification for Johnson Controls Neige is very wide: from product design to field implementation, and maintenance operations.
