ECOSLC Foundation congratulates the Batumi Sea Port LLC, Georgia, on achieving ECOPORTS PERS Certification in October for the first 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.
EcoPorts
Certification makes the port a member of the global Network of EcoPorts
Certified ports.
This network was set up to share practical experiences between these ports. This global Network is also intended to contribute to the greening of the port sector.
The EcoPorts
Management system is offered to ports and terminals 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.
