Sustainability at spaces
Since June 2024, spaces has had EMAS validation
and DIN EN ISO 14001 certification.
In addition, we have already implemented the following aspects in our locations during the development of the environmental management system:
- Switching to resource-saving alternatives for consumables.
- Providing advice on recyclable products to reduce waste.
- Conversion to LED lighting, with 75 percent complete.
- Development of the GreenPackage.
We have set out to gradually improve the sustainability of spaces and our venues.
Our portfolio consists mainly of historic buildings and former industrial halls – our aim is to carefully modernize and refurbish existing buildings so that they can be used for events.
The continued use of existing buildings in this way is associated with a significantly lower consumption of energy and resources than demolition and new construction. In addition, we are already implementing various individual measures to save energy and resources.
What is the Green Package?
The GreenPackage is designed to make organizing a more environmentally friendly event easier for our customers.
This means that we present the key information on our partners’ commitment to sustainability and their sustainable product concepts on our website.
Customers can then see which aspects appeal to them the most at one glance and request partners and offers accordingly.
It is important to note that it is not yet possible to plan a completely CO2-neutral event, BUT by choosing more sustainable product and service alternatives, it is possible to reduce the footprint and thus already have a positive impact.
The GreenPackage also includes a selection of environmental protection initiatives that can be integrated into the event concept.
