NOAH assesses its environmental impact every year by reviewing the company’s environmental aspects. Through extensive monitoring of emissions into the air and water, as well as the proper processing and disposal of waste, we work to prevent a negative environmental impact. We document our compliance with the requirements of the applicable discharge permits for our processing facilities (see www.norskeutslipp.no).

In keeping with the requirements of the ISO 14001 standard, NOAH has identified and assessed all environmental aspects. These are assessed and audited annually in order to evaluate the essential environmental aspects of NOAH’s activities. NOAH’s environmental goals are based on the company’s essential environmental aspects. The materiality analysis for sustainability among employees and external stakeholders corresponds largely with NOAH’s own definitions of essential environmental aspects in accordance with the ISO 14001 environmental standard.
