ISO 46001 CERTIFICATION SUPPORT

ISO 46001 certification for organizations that want to use water wisely

Water costs money, and in many regions it’s getting harder to come by. Factories, hotels, farms and campuses lose a lot of it to leaks, poor processes and habits nobody questions.

ISO 46001 gives you a system for measuring water use, setting targets and cutting waste. We help you build it and certify it.

Efficiency, measured

The standard is about using water efficiently, not just buying less of it. You work out where water goes, set sensible targets, monitor usage and keep improving. It applies to any organization that uses water, whatever its size or sector.

Because it follows the same structure as ISO 14001 and ISO 50001, it slots easily into systems you may already run.

How we take you to certification

  1. Water audit. Walk through the site and map the flow of water.
  2. Gap analysis. Current practice against ISO 46001.
  3. Targets and action plan. Realistic reductions and who is responsible for each.
  4. Monitoring set-up. Metering, recording and reporting.
  5. Training. Operations and maintenance teams.
  6. Internal audit and management review. Rehearsal.
  7. Certification audit. With an accredited certification body.

Current edition

ISO 46001:2019 is the current edition. Certification is still uncommon in many regions, so we confirm availability with accredited certification bodies before you commit.

Questions we hear often

It depends on the site. We won’t promise a figure before the water audit, but leaks and process losses are often the first and cheapest wins.

Usually some metering is needed to know where water goes. We’ll advise on where it’s worth installing.

They share structure and many of the same legal requirements, so combining them saves effort.

Usually three to six months.
