As we step into 2026, Durban Landscaping & Garden Maintenance is proud to reflect on how far we’ve come – and even more excited about where we’re heading. The new year marks a significant milestone for our business as we finalise our ISO certifications, reinforcing our commitment to quality, environmental responsibility, and the safety of our people.
This isn’t just a tick-the-box achievement. It’s the result of months of teamwork, learning, refining processes, and raising the bar across every part of our operations.
Finalising Our ISO Certifications
Finalising our ISO certifications represents a major step forward for Durban. These globally recognised standards strengthen how we operate every day:
-
Quality Management (ISO 9001): Ensuring consistent, reliable service delivery and continual improvement for our clients.
-
Environmental Management (ISO 14001): Guiding sustainable practices that reduce our environmental impact, protect the landscapes we maintain, and support responsible resource use across all our operations.
-
Occupational Health & Safety (ISO 45001): Embedding safety into everything we do by prioritising the wellbeing of our people, managing risks effectively, and ensuring everyone goes home safe, every day.
Achieving this milestone has meant reviewing procedures, improving systems, upskilling our team, and embedding best practice into everything we do. It’s been a true team effort – one that sets a strong foundation for the years ahead.
Stronger Systems, Stronger Team
The journey to ISO has made us better – not just on paper, but in practice. From clearer processes and safer worksites to more consistent reporting and communication, our systems are now stronger, smarter, and more resilient.
Most importantly, our team understands why these standards matter. They support safer workplaces, better outcomes for our clients, and a culture of accountability and pride in our work.
What’s in Store for Durban in 2026
With ISO certification locked in, 2026 is about building on that momentum. Here’s what’s ahead:
✔️Continued focus on staff wellbeing, training, and development
✔️Expanding our community initiatives and giving-back programs
✔️Strengthening partnerships with key clients and stakeholders

We’re committed to growing the right way – sustainably, safely, and with purpose.
A Year of Confidence & Growth
Finalising our ISO certifications gives Durban the confidence to move into 2026 knowing our foundations are strong. It’s a milestone that reflects our values, our people, and our commitment to doing things the right way.
