Aerospace & Defense Industry Excellence Award Winner Enginetics

Enginetics Aerospace Corporation, a leading provider of complex metal formed components and fabricated assemblies for the global aerospace industry, was seeking ISO 14001 certification. ISO 14001 is a framework that companies can follow to assure management, employees and other stakeholders that environmental impacts are being measured and improved. The certification would not only boost the company's reputation but also lower operating costs. However, the process of achieving this certification was challenging due to the need for accurate, timely Safety Data Sheets (SDS) information. Enginetics was already committed to ensuring compliance with other global mandates for product stewardship and sustainability, including Tier II chemical inventory reporting under the US Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA), the Globally Harmonized System for Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS), and the European Union’s Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH). However, managing these compliance mandates manually was proving to be inefficient and prone to errors.

Today, it partners with the US Department of Defense as well as commercial jet builders and military customers in other countries to deliver innovative design and engineering that result in superior quality at lower costs. As its international business expanded, Enginetics decided to seek ISO 14001 certification, a framework that companies can follow to assure management, employees and other stakeholders that environmental impacts are being measured and improved. The company is also committed to ensuring compliance with other global mandates for product stewardship and sustainability, including Tier II chemical inventory reporting under the US Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA), the Globally Harmonized System for Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS), and the European Union’s Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH).
