Otis’ manufacturing facility in Korea, recently achieved ISO14001 certification, becoming the latest Otis factory to accomplish this feat. To date, more than 90 percent of our factories have met the international standards for this certification.

Earlier this year, Otis announced ambitious long-term ESG targets, including having all factories reach ISO14001 certification by 2025.

Officially opening its doors midway through 2019, colleagues across functions at the Incheon-based facility actively collaborated on activities such as integrating the requirements of our robust EH&S management system and conducting environmental impact assessments of each department. Through these assessments, our colleagues also identified opportunities – and actions - to recycle an additional 30 percent of total waste in the near-term.
