Following a robust three day audit, VERCO is delighted to announce that we have been recommended to be certificated to BS EN ISO 14001:2004. This international standard brings a world-wide focus to the environment, encouraging a cleaner, safer and healthier world for us all.

BS EN ISO 14001:2004 specifies the requirements for an environmental management system (EMS), which provides a framework for VERCO to control the environmental impacts of our activities, products and services, and to continually improve our environmental performance (It applies to those environmental aspects which we can control and over which we can be expected to have an influence).

 
BS EN ISO 14001:2004 requires an Environmental Policy to be in existence within the organisation, fully supported by senior management and allows us to focus our environmental efforts against internationally accepted criteria and in particular stresses our ongoing commitment to continuous improvement.

This important international standard is designed to address the delicate balance between maintaining profitablility and reducing any environmental impact; with the commitment of our entire organisation, it can enable us to achieve both objectives.
 
 
   

Roman elegance and just a hint of 'retro'.

Roma is a beautifully designed and traditionally constructed range of tub chairs and 2 or 3 seater sofas, contoured for comfort and built to last. The clean curves and lines give this range its classic identity.

Personal space is maintained even whilst sharing the larger units by means of the serpentine back featuring beautiful upholstery detail.

They are great around coffee tables, flexible enough for large areas and small offices alike, robust enough to last.

The addition of an optional writing tablet allows the chair to be used in training and seminar apllications.

 
Optional castors offer a personal and flexible approach to team briefings, while the underseat shelf can provide useful storage in reception areas.

Classically contemporary - well, when in Rome!

Facilities enhancements for nearly 3000 staff at Essex County Council's HQ in Chelmsford incorporates Roma reception seating, colour-coded to brand new corporate identity and value statements, in restaurant and break-out areas.

Council contract holder Bridon (Furniture At Work) took a brief to replace under-used timber frame seating to breakout areas on each of five floors within the building's atrium as well as its top floor restaurant. The company presented samples from five providers, which were then tested by the Council FM team. The team selected Roma for its attributes of comfort, image and accessories (notably writing tablets).

 
"We were looking for signature furniture for informal meetings or mobile working and Roma chairs ticked all the boxes. The chairs look great, are comfortable to use and easy to clean and we hope to scale out this contract for Roma seating throughout our forty-five main offices" says building facilities manager, Tricia Shirley.

Fraser Donaldson at Bridon adds: "Roma is a good solid chair which we have used with great success in other locations such as universities, health authorities and corporate clients. It also represents good value for money."
