Quality and Environmental policy

Quality and Environmental policy – Environmental objectives

Cotherm seeks to pursue its development around 3 strategic axes:

-maintaining the position as a leader in the electric water-heater segment

-becoming a credible challenger in the electric heating market

-taking advantage of opportunities in related markets (coffee machine, electric oven, commercial catering, gas boiler, sauna ).

Our offer includes standard components (COTHERM components) to more complex solutions including multiple functions (COTHERM innovation).

The capability to progress in these fields comes from the constant improvement of our competitive advantages : quality, service, innovation.

Cotherm is committed to creating the necessary organisation and implementing the means which lead to the improvement of Quality & Environmental performance. Our company pledges to meet all legal requirements, to comply with the ISO 9001 standards for both production sites in France and in Tunisia, and with the ISO 14001 standard for the Les Levées production site.

The success of this approach essentially depends on each employee’s commitment in his day-to-day assignments. It is the responsibility of everyone to improve our Quality and Environment Management System, by informing of all quality, safety or environmental problems to the responsible person who will undertake to act as efficiently as possible.

Further to the sale of the Erinée factory and the extension of the Les Levées’ factory, our environmental analysis has improved. Hence, new environmental targets have been defined:

-reduce our electrical and water consumptions to preserve our natural resources

-prevent accidental pollutions and improve our capacity to react to urgent situations

Moreover, we plan pursue the following:

-Mobilize our main suppliers and subcontractors to work with us in the continuous improvement of quality and environment

-Developing products which help to reduce energy consumption
