The environmental variable has grown to become an element of strategic value for all of Alicante’s businesses. In any sector it is not only necessary to abide by the existing rules, but also to progess towards production systems which are responsible from an environmental perspective.

Making the business collective aware of the problems and how to correctly manage resources in line with the environment is fundamental

With the aim of making this transition towards more sustainable productive models easier, COEPA , in collaboration with the department for land and housing, Conselleria de Territorio y Vivienda, places an Environmental Consulting Service at the disposal of all of the companies in the area, which includes both visits to the company as well as online consultations.

Making the business collective aware of the problems and how to carry out environmental management according to the particular needs of each case is fundamental.

Businesses have services at their disposal such as the following:

• Evaluation of the current state via environmental diagnoses.
• Waste characterisation
• Establishing plans to minimise the production of waste
• Access to standardised environmental management systems

At COEPA we participate in the diffusion of a responsible business culture which does not allow the resources of the future to be jeopardised by the actions of today.

In order to do this, training activities are carried out, technical conferences are held on matters of environmental interest, and publications and reports are produced to improve knowledge on key subjects.
