Standard Imaging Receives Wisconsin Business Friend of the Environment Award

Standard Imaging was one of nine Wisconsin companies to receive the prestigious Wisconsin Business Friend of the Environment Award for outstanding achievements in environmental protection. The company won the award for environmental stewardship in the small company category at the 19th Annual Environmental Policy and Awards Conference held at the Country Springs Conference Center in Waukesha on May 14, 2008. The awards are sponsored by Wisconsin Manufacturer and Commerce™ and the Wisconsin Environmental Working Group®.

“These companies are dedicated to environmental stewardship, protecting the earth and keeping Wisconsin clean for generations to come,” said Scott Manley, director of the Wisconsin Environmental Working Group®, the affiliate of WMC which sponsors the annual awards. “Our hope is that the stories of the winners, and the nominees, will inspire everyone to minimize waste and protect the environment. These companies show that government mandates are not needed when businesses lead the way to keep Wisconsin clean.”

“One of our responsibilities in being a good corporate citizen is to consider sustainable practices and apply them wherever possible,” said Ed Neumueller, President. “We hope that our efforts will be good for the environment, as well as for our customers and our business.”

The nine winners were chosen from a competitive field of forty five companies nominated by their peers, and in some cases, the companies themselves. An independent panel of judges, including an environmental regulator, and representatives from industry, environmental groups, and the University of Wisconsin System, selected the winners. Business Friend of the Environment Award winners are categorized according to number of employees and judged in the areas of pollution prevention, environmental innovation and environmental stewardship.

Standard Imaging, located in Middleton, WI, is a manufacturer of radiation calibration and quality assurance instruments for healthcare. The company was founded in 1990, and has continually grown to become a leader in the medical physics field.
