Our environmental policies
As a responsible stakeholder in the events industry, GL events has been engaged for several years in a sustainable development policy, in particular through the implementation of the "Think Green" action program and the formalization of a Code of Ethics and Conduct encouraging a sense of responsibility towards the environment.
GL events Venues, a specialist in event facility management, made this commitment a reality in 2012 by deploying an ISO 14001 certification process integrated into the operational management of its French sites, in order to:
-
Meet the expectations and needs of its stakeholders,
-
Limit environmental impacts and prevent pollution,
-
Ensure site conformance in a demanding regulatory context.
This approach also responds to an increasing demand from our customers when it comes to the choice of their event site. Our main challenges are related to:
- The management of waste produced on site before, during, and after the event,
- Energy control of buildings, considering the specificities of each building and technical and economic constraints,
- Optimization of water consumption in buildings,
- CO2 emissions related to our activities
Meeting the standards of the ISO 14001 standard since 2012, the Palais Brongniart is the very first Historic Monument to be certified for its environmental approach.
