How New Balance Strengthened Global EHS Compliance with Barbour EHS – An Axiom Case Study

Rebecca Johnson

For New Balance, maintaining world-class standards in Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) meant going beyond compliance. With operations spanning multiple countries and ambitious sustainability goals, the challenge was clear: how to align everyday processes with the exacting demands of ISO accreditation. By working with Barbour EHS, part of the Axiom GRC family, New Balance gained the tools to centralise legal requirements, streamline audits, and embed best practice across its global operations.

Matt Egeland, Senior EHS Manager at New Balance spoke with Teresa Dier from Barbour EHS to discuss the company’s journey and commitment to its ISO certifications, implementing best practices internationally, and the invaluable lessons learned.

Barbour’s platform gave us access to legislation and legal requirements across Europe, which is very difficult to get. You can search Google for hours, but you don’t get consistent information, and you don’t actually know if what you’ve found is correct. We have now saved ourselves those countless hours of research, and Barbour’s tools allowed us to build a robust legal register tailored to our needs.
