ACCREDITATIONS AND AWARDS

Setting The Manufacturing & Environmental Standard.

WE’RE PROUD TO HAVE SET THE ENVIRONMENTAL STANDARD FOR CERAMICS MANUFACTURE IN THE WHITE WARES SECTOR.

Johnson Tiles is known for high quality products and first class service. Our track record in committing to making positive change happen has helped us to uphold this reputation. We’re constantly making and setting the industry standards for health and safety, quality assurance and environmental improvement ahead of time.


In 1998, we were the first ceramics company in the white wares sector to be awarded ISO 14001 status recognised by the British Standards Institution for our environmental management system. This award has since been upgraded to meet the latest 1SO 14001: 2015 requirements.


In 2020, our plastics-free packaging solution was Carbon Trust PAS 2050 certified for carbon neutrality. Just another example of how we actively pursue a policy of technical, environmental and design achievements for, not just our products, but the processes that help us bring them to market.

Fast-forward to 2022, and we are now the only UK tile manufacturer to hold an EPD certificate!

EPD stands for Environmental Product Declaration and it transparently communicates the environmental performance or impact of our tiles over their lifetime. It signals a manufacturer’s commitment to measuring the environmental impacts of its products and the strive to discover ways to reduce this.


This EPD has been verified in accordance with ISO 14025 by an independent, third-party verifier by reviewing results, documents and compliancy with reference standard ISO 14025 and ISO 14040/14044.


We are proud to be leaders on this sustainability journey, and constantly aiming to discover more ways to positively impact the planet! - Find out more below.
