Abbot Hill in Wilton, New Hampshire, is home to High Mowing School, a Waldorf boarding high school, and Temple-Wilton Community Farm, one of the first biodynamic community supported agriculture (CSA) programs in the U.S.

An international “big box” retailer lacked clarity of the environmental, health and safety risks in several of their non-retail business units. These businesses included a meat processing facility, a print shop, an optical manufacturing facility, and several distribution centers. These businesses presented unique risks that were unfamiliar to their safety team, whose expertise focused on minimizing retail risks. Their first priorities were to understand the risks that were present, baseline the level of compliance, and establish an audit protocol that could be used by an internal audit team in the future.
Antea Group, along with our global Inogen partners, was requested to provide environmental, health and safety (EHS) regulatory compliance audits of a major automotive supplier's manufacturing facilities in South America (7 facilities) and Asia (3 facilities). Antea Group led the organization of the audit protocols, schedule and expectations from North America for the Inogen partners to execute. This structure allowed for quality, control and consistency across the global audit team.
