This is visible proof of our commitment to responsible and sustainable operations, and gives us a concrete tool to work continuously with our green transition.
Eco-Lighthouse (Miljøfyrtårn in Norwegian) is Norway’s most widely used certificate for businesses that want to document their environmental efforts and demonstrate social responsibility.
Eco-Lighthouse certification is more than just a symbol. It also involves strong links to the UN’s sustainability goals. As members of Eco-Lighthouse, we are obliged to contribute to the fulfilment of several of these goals. This includes reducing our environmental impact, promoting equality and human rights, utilising responsible procurement practices, and reducing energy consumption and waste management.
Our Eco-Lighthouse certification is an important part of our overall sustainability strategy, which includes a holistic perspective on the environment, society, and economy. We are keen to integrate sustainability into all aspects of our business, and the Eco-Lighthouse certification gives us a structured approach to improving our sustainability work and ensuring that we follow relevant laws and regulations in the area.
Our subsidiary O.B.Wiik AS is already certified, and during December Plamek, Haagensen Plast, CC Betong, Hallmaker, Rubb Industries, Renthall, Rubbhall, and Arqdesign Norge will also be certified.
We encourage our suppliers and partners to take the step towards a sustainable future by becoming Eco-Lighthouse certified! This is a concrete and targeted way to improve our environmental footprint and contribute to a more sustainable social development. Through Eco-Lighthouse companies get access to tools, resources, and expertise that help them identify and implement concrete measures, as well as follow up and report on progress.
Below are some projects we have already started, as well as others we are planning:
