More than ever, companies are facing the challenge of acting sustainably and at the same time retaining competitiveness. We are especially pleased to welcome two new companies to the ECOPROFIT programme: GBG Gebäude und Baumanagement Graz GmbH and the Department of Civil Protection/Fire Brigade of the City of Graz. All in all, 32 companies from manufacturing industries, the service sector and administration took part in the ECOPROFIT club programme to continously improve their environmental preformance.

Workshops and dedicated working groups provide information about relevant innovations and promote the active exchange of experience within the network.  This year, the focus was on the analysis of environmental aspects over the product life cycle and the development of a mobility concept on company level. Companies have been very active in recent years, especially in the implementation of measures related to mobility. A large number of measures were implemented to promote cycling, public transport and electromobility in the ECOPROFIT companies. These measures were collected and described in a dedicated brochure.

We would like to thank everybody for their active participation, the many ideas and the  implementation of measures. Congratulations to the companies for the ECOPROFIT award 2019!
