The Eco-Friendly Business GREENMark is an Eco-Label for smaller businesses that operate in a responsible, sustainable and environmentally friendly manner. It is operated in conjunction with Green Hospitality and GreenTravel.ie and any business that achieves the GREENMark will be listed on our consumer website www.greentravel.ie
The programme is primarily aimed at micro and small businesses that spend less than €75,000 per annum combined on Energy, Water and Waste.
The Eco-Friendly Business GREENMark programme provides the following resources for members;
- Environmental Performance Assessment Survey
- Green Track – our monitoring and recording system which enable users to manage their eco-friendly actions
