We are a menber of the BLOCK® Group

The BLOCK® Group brings together companies focusing their complex services, projects and sophisticated deliveries mainly into the clean rooms field. These are especially complete deliveries of investment projects, deliveries of technological units and products to the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors, and the development of SW for measurement and regulation. At the customer's request, all deliveries are then validated according to good manufacturing practice (GMP) by a group of our own validation engineers. Warranty and post-warranty support service provided by our own trained technicians then goes without saying for the BLOCK® Group.

The fundamental building block of the whole group became the BLOCK company that was founded in 1991. The other companies from the group gradually followed. Thanks to partnership and cordial relationships within the group, we are able to offer our customers a wide range of solutions and services.

EMAS (Eco Management and Audit Scheme)
Verified environmental management

Over and above the ISO 14001 certification, the company BLOCK CRS a.s. and its organizational component in Slovakia, are also holders of voluntary EMAS certification from 2022.

EMAS (Eco Management and Audit Scheme) is a voluntary environmental protection instrument created by the European Union to control and monitor the management and environmental impact of organisations' activities and to publish information in the form of environmental statements.

The EMAS system is one of the ways in which an organisation can proceed with the implementation of an environmental management system – EMS. EMS means a systematic approach to environmental protection in all aspects of business through which a company integrates environmental care into its business strategy and day-to-day operations. EMS is an integral part of the management system of the entire enterprise and concerns the organizational structure, methods of division of responsibilities, technological procedures, processes, resources for establishing and implementing environmental policy. The EMS is primarily aimed at protecting (reducing the consumption of) natural resources, reducing the amount of waste and pollutants, reducing the risk of environmental accidents, protecting the health of workers and inhabitants and, last but not least, sustainable economic growth of the enterprise.

EMAS represents a proactive approach by the company to monitor, manage and progressively reduce the negative environmental impacts of the organisation’s activities above and beyond the legislative requirements. It is intended for both manufacturing enterprises and organisations operating in the private sphere, as well as for state and public administration organisations or parts thereof. The condition for participation in EMAS is certification by a third independent party.
