Environmental compliance can sometimes feel like a moving target. Regulations evolve, guidance is updated, and expectations shift — often without much warning.
For many organisations, staying compliant isn’t about lack of commitment. It’s about managing complexity alongside everything else the business is responsible for. How can we help?
ISO 14001, the international standard for Environmental Management Systems (EMS), is being updated. The Final Draft International Standard (FDIS) was released on 5 January 2026 and is currently under ballot among ISO member bodies ahead of formal publication expected in early 2026. The new edition (ISO 14001:2026) is set to replace ISO 14001:2015, with a transition period anticipated to last up to three years.
ISO14001 is undergoing its 5 yearly review. Find out about what changes are likely to affect the standard when it is published in 2026, and how businesses can prepare to meet the new challenges.
