Responsibility

  • ISO14001 Environmental Management System

    • The future is in our hands

      PVF Scaffolding Ltd take our Environmental Responsibility seriously and as such have committed to our ISO14001 Environmental Management Accreditation.

      Since taking on ISO14001 alongside our Quality Management System, we have managed to reduce the travel time spent getting to and from projects significantly by implementing internal systems to manage the everyday movements of our network partners.

      Outside of office hours we allow local residents to park their vehicles in our car park to reduce parking congestion in the surrounding area as well as allowing the use our address for deliveries as a local hub. This reduces the number of second delivery attempts or journeys to depots to collect. Residents are very grateful of this service which we provide for no charge.

    • Consistently maintain a high quality service

      PVF Scaffolding Ltd provides a high-quality service for the Scaffolding Industry and is committed to the continual improvement of the effectiveness of its Quality Management System (QMS).

      The commitment is communicated through the major objectives of:

      • The Company works to exceed customer expectations
      • Assure safe working practices are always adhered to by both ourselves and our sub-contractors.

      These objectives are essential to the growth of the company and will be achieved through continual monitoring and evaluation of the effectiveness of its processes, together with clear and concise communication with employees and clients.

      The Directors and Senior Management Team will ensure that all the necessary preventive action is taken to ensure that the services provided are delivered in such a manner that customers are assured of our commitments to Safety, Health, Environment and Quality.
