Container manufacturer Taylor achieves ISO9001:2000

Worcestershire-based container manufacturers Egbert H Taylor & Company has achieved accreditation to the ISO9001:2000 Quality Management System.

A leading supplier of waste and recycling equipment for local authorities, corporate business, hospital and waste management companies, it has provided waste containers for the West Midlands Fire Service and the British Grand Prix at Silverstone in the last year as well as new kerbside recycling services in Shropshire and Leicestershire.

In the business for over 40 years, Taylor took on the manufacture of plastic kerbside recycling containers after the assets of Plysu Recycling were sold by its parent company in 2002 (see letsrecycle.com story).

The achievement of the new ISO9001 standard adds the requirement for awareness of business processes and competencies as well as the more procedure-based demands of the old standard system, which expires next year.

Commenting on the firm's achievement, quality manager Ali Mirzadeh said: “The nature of the new standard encourages Taylor's entire workforce to be proactive, setting measurable and achievable objectives throughout the process from design and development, through manufacturing to after sales customer support.”

As well as the popular kerbside collection boxes, Taylor produces wheeled bins for domestic refuse collection as well as containers in a variety of colours and sizes for trade waste and clinical waste. The company also produces containers for high-rise apartments, underground waste systems and container identification tags using microchip technology.
