ECOSLC Foundation congratulates Administracion del
Sistema Portuario Nacional Lázaro Cárdenas, S.A. de C.V., Mexico, on achieving
ECOPORTS PERS Certification in May 2025 for the fourth time.
EcoPorts PERS is the only environmental and sustainable management
standard that is fully tailored to the specific roles and responsibilities of
ports.
Among other things, the standard requires the port to
present an overview of the main environmental and sustainable impacts of its
port process. This is a basis for making improvements by applying environmental
laws and our own environmental policy.
With this renewal of the certificate, the port demonstrates
that it follows a long-term approach of continuous improvement. In doing so the
port is also continuing its membership of the global network for sharing
practical experiences between EcoPorts Certified Ports.
The continuous improvement of the port process often
requires the introduction of innovations and new approaches in the port
process. This can lead to improvements in environment and sustainability
effects of the process but also to positive effects of the port’s business
model.
This global Network is also intended to contribute to the
greening of the port sector.
The EcoPorts Management system is offered outside Europe
by ECOSLC Foundation, located in the Netherlands via the ECOSLC website
(www.ecoslc.eu). Compliance with the EcoPorts PERS standard is independently
assessed by LRQA Netherlands. The certificate has a validity of 2 years.
