Neveah, a Nigerian commodities export and recycling company, has achieved Integrated Management System certification for ISO 9001 for Quality Management, ISO 14001 for Environmental Management, and ISO 45001 for Occupational Health and Safety.

Ibidapo Lawal, the company’s managing director, announced this in a statement on Sunday. According to Lawal, these certifications mark a significant milestone in Neveah’s journey towards operational excellence, sustainable manufacturing, and global best practices.

He said the feats reflected the company’s continued commitment to delivering high-quality products, protecting the environment, and ensuring a safe and healthy workplace for its employees, contractors, partners and stakeholders.

“Securing these ISO certifications is an important validation of the systems, discipline and culture we are building at Neveah. As we continue to scale our recycling and manufacturing operations, our focus remains clear: to operate responsibly, deliver consistent value to our customers, protect the environment, and provide a safe workplace for our people. This milestone strengthens our position as a trusted Nigerian company competing to global standards,” he said.

Mr Lawal said the certifications came at a pivotal time for Neveah as the company continues to deepen its investment in recycling, metals processing and value-added manufacturing.

According to him, with growing demand for responsibly sourced and sustainably produced materials, the certifications further enhance the company’s credibility with customers, financial institutions, development partners, regulators and international stakeholders.

“Neveah Limited remains committed to continuous improvement and will continue to strengthen its management systems, operational controls, environmental practices and health and safety standards across all areas of the business,” he said.

ISO certifications are official seals proving a business meets international rules for quality, safety, and efficiency. The ISO 9001 certification demonstrates Neveah’s commitment to consistent quality, customer satisfaction, process improvement and strong operational controls.

ISO 14001 affirmed the company’s focus on responsible environmental management, waste reduction, resource efficiency, and sustainable production practices, and Neveah’s dedication to maintaining high standards of occupational health and safety across its operations.
