Raising the Standard: Another Year of ISO Success

At Clyde Paper & Print, quality and sustainability aren’t just industry buzzwords - they’re principles we live by. That’s why we’re proud to announce that, following last month’s audit, we successfully passed both our ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 standards with no non-conformances.

For anyone unfamiliar with these certifications, this means every aspect of our quality management and environmental management systems was independently assessed and found to meet the highest standards, without a single issue raised.

Why UKAS Accreditation Matters

Our certifications are carried out by a UKAS-accredited independent assessor. This route isn’t the easiest or cheapest option, but it’s the right one. UKAS accreditation carries far more weight than non-accredited alternatives because it guarantees the audit has been completed with the strictest impartial scrutiny.

For our customers, this provides peace of mind: when we say we’re committed to quality and sustainability, it’s not just a claim - it’s backed by rigorous, trusted standards.

Over a Decade of Certification

We’ve proudly held ISO 9001 (Quality Management) and ISO 14001 (Environmental Management) certifications since 2012. That’s more than ten years of consistently demonstrating not just compliance, but a long-term commitment to doing things properly.

Alongside these, since 2011 we’ve also been certified by both the FSC® and PEFC—international standards that ensure the paper and timber used in our products come from responsibly managed sources. These certifications are audited annually, with our next audit scheduled for December. Together, these achievements reflect our ongoing efforts to reduce environmental impact while delivering the highest-quality print and packaging solutions.

Why This Matters for Our Customers

For the companies we work with—whether that’s mailing houses, commercial printers, the education sector, or corporate clients—trust and credibility are everything. When you choose Clyde Paper & Print, you’re choosing a partner who takes compliance, quality, and sustainability as seriously as you do.

And it shows in our products. From educational supplies like exercise books, and exercise paper to everyday essentials such as printing paper, labels, envelopes, and many more, every item we produce is backed by our commitment to quality and responsible sourcing.

It’s not just about meeting regulations. It’s about delivering products our customers can be proud to use—whether in the classroom, the office, or across commercial operations—while doing the right thing for our suppliers and the planet.

Looking Ahead

Audits and certifications may not make the headlines, but they’re at the heart of what we do. They keep us accountable, encourage continuous improvement, and give our clients the assurance that they’re working with a partner who values quality, integrity, and sustainability above all else.

We’ll continue to share updates on our certifications, especially as our FSC® and PEFC audits approach later this year. For now, we’re proud to celebrate another year of audit success and reaffirm our promise: to deliver sustainable print and packaging solutions without compromise.
