What is Eco-Lighthouse?
Eco-Lighthouse is a well-recognized certification program that assesses and certifies organizations based on their environmental performance. Endorsed by the Norwegian government, Eco-Lighthouse provides a robust framework for companies to implement effective environmental management practices. Certification by Eco-Lighthouse signifies that a company has met elaborate criteria across various aspects of its operations, including waste management, energy efficiency, transportation, and procurement.
All Eco-Lighthouse certified businesses are re-evaluated every three years through an independent third-party audit. The certification therefore demonstrates that the reviewed business systematically and continuously works on their ESG efforts.
EU recognition
Eco-Lighthouse is the first national certification scheme in Europe to receive recognition from the European Commission. This acknowledgment confirms that the scheme meets standards on the same level as international eco-labelling programs such as EMAS (Eco-Management and Audit Scheme) and ISO 14001. This validation by the European Commission underscores the credibility and high standards of the Eco-Lighthouse certification.
