Green Key
We are incredibly proud of our beautiful surroundings here in Borstahusen and our trees, beaches and shore forests mean everything for us. Therefore it’s only natural that we are working from a sustainable point of view. We want sustainability to be present in everything we strive to do in the future and what we do from day to day. Mötesplats Borstahusen will operate an enterprise that values fairness and responsibility towards employees, our community and our surroundings.
It is because of the reasons mentioned above that we’ve chosen to eco-label our facilities with the international eco-label, Green Key. The label is internationally run by Foundation for Environment Education (FEE) and by the organization Green Key Sweden, here in Sweden.
Green Key Sweden’s criterias for the certification include 13 different areas of sustainability which among other things include requirements regarding water and energy consumption, waste, chemicals and food and produce. The criterias from Green Key requires, as an example, renewable energy, reduced water flow from taps and showers, that waste be recycled and that eco-labeled paper and cleaning products be used. Yearly initiatives should also be taken to increase the percentage of organic produce used.
Through the work with Green Key, Mötesplats Borstahusen undertake the following commitments:
- Prioritizing eco-labeled and environmentally friendly products when purchasing, to the greatest extent possible.
- Having a well defined collaboration regarding sustainability with our suppliers.
- Having a reactive and proactive way of working concerning sustainability within our industry.
- Taking our external environment into consideration when assessing new products and techniques.
- Working towards always having correct eco-labels on our products.
- Through information and cooperation include our employees in our current work towards sustainability.
