Successful EMAS Registration at the Dunaújváros Site

With the accession of Hungary to the European Union, companies now have the opportunity to have their environmental protection activities and management systems assessed and qualified with the help of the management and certification system of the European Union (EMAS) which is slightly more stringent and comprehensive than the ISO standards. As the environmental management system used by Dunapack Rt. has already been compliant with the EU EMAS criteria since 2000 and the company was “quasi” registered in Brussels, after the accession we have decided to apply for actual registration – for the time being only for the Dunaújváros site. The registration process was completed in December 2005 and the company’s Dunaújváros site is now registered among the other EMAS certified companies under No. HU-000002.
