Indeed, certain companies join a programme of 'eco-management' which offers them a national or international recognition via the obtaining of a label. Among these, 3 are granted to Brussels companies and organizations.
'Ecodynamic Company' label
This label is an official recognition by the Brussels Capital-Region. It rewards the good environmental management of the company or organization in energy, waste, mobility, but especially the urge and the dynamism of the company to progress in its eco-management.
The label grants stars (1, 2 or 3) according to the commitment of the company or organization. The label is also evolutionary and is granted only for a period of 3 years. The City of Brussels launched the procedure to obtain the label Ecodynamic Company for its City Hall.
EMAS (Environmental Management and Audit Scheme)
This European recognition is a system allowing organizations to make a commitment, on a voluntary base, to evolve and to improve their results in environment. The EMAS is open to any organization of the public or private sector which makes a commitment to improve its results in environment.
ISO 14001 (International Standard Organization)
This international standard is like the standard on quality ISO 9001. It proposes to companies or organizations an Environmental Management system (EMS).
The standards of the family ISO 14000 can be applied all around the world to any type of organization for its structure and activity.
How to act?
If labels allow to obtain a recognition, you will be surprised with the savings you can realize by establishing a system of eco-management in your company or organization.
The Region offers help: general aid under the shape of a consultancy service, and assistance in environmental investments.
