In today’s business environment, the trust of clients, partners, and the wider community is built not only on the results a company achieves, but also on how it reaches those results. Expectations for companies have grown significantly – consistent quality and safety, responsible environmental stewardship, and a clearly demonstrated commitment to social responsibility are now essential.
CEEFOR proudly announces that, following the previous three certifications issued by the certification body TMS (9001:2015; 14001:2015; 45001:2018), it has now obtained two additional ISO certificates— ISO 50001:2018 and ISO 27001:2022. International ISO standards provide a framework for recognizing and validating specific business principles. They represent a global language of quality and reliability, shaped by experts from around the world, as well as manufacturers, suppliers, users, and professional associations that understand industry and market needs.
ISO 50001:2018
One of the two newly obtained certificates—ISO 50001:2018—sets international standards for organizations seeking to improve energy efficiency and reduce energy consumption. Its implementation enables companies to systematically monitor their energy use, identify losses, and implement measures that generate savings. This not only results in direct financial benefits by reducing costs—although that is certainly one of the advantages—but also provides a significant contribution to environmental protection. In essence, the certificate guides and supports companies in aligning their operations with regulations while demonstrating responsibility toward sustainable development.

ISO 27001:2022
The second standard is ISO 27001:2022, which defines frameworks and best practices for information security and risk management related to data protection. The certificate confirms that the organization implements clear procedures to safeguard the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the information it handles. This includes a wide range of measures—from technical solutions against cyberattacks and access control policies to plans for responding to security incidents. The standard is increasingly important in today’s digital era, as it assures clients and partners that their data is processed responsibly and in compliance with international regulations such as the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) of the European Union.
In this way, ISO 27001 serves as a key foundation for stable, secure operations in a highly digitalized society. As stated by Miloš Saleta, Head of the Technical Administration Department and Chief Designer at CEEFOR, TMS will regularly monitor the implementation of procedures and conduct annual surveillance audits, with certificate renewal taking place after the third year.
“Certificates are not only confirmation that we operate in line with the highest standards—they also represent a commitment to maintain that level of excellence, supported by regular audits conducted by the certification body,” emphasized Miloš Saleta.
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO), founded in 1947, today brings together more than 170 members worldwide. ISO members are national standardization organizations, and each country has only one representative. Each of these organizations represents ISO at the national level. There are three categories of membership, each offering different levels of rights, access, and influence within the organization.
ISO standards cover various areas of business and offer companies a framework based on globally recognized guidelines and best practices. One of the major advantages of ISO certification is compliance with legal regulations across different countries, reducing the risk of penalties and legal uncertainty. At the same time, commitment to these standards strengthens the reputation of every certified organization.
By obtaining ISO certifications, CEEFOR clearly demonstrates the values on which it intends to build its future development.
