The founding principle of EcoPorts is to create a level playing field on environment through cooperation and sharing of knowledge between ports.
Through EcoPorts certification, aligned with ISO 14001, enabling TasPorts to benchmark its performance against ports around the world. With more than 105 ports across the 25 countries certified to date the overarching principle of EcoPorts is to raise awareness of environmental protection through cooperation and sharing of knowledge between ports and improvement of environmental management.
Achieving EcoPorts certification for the four major ports of Bell Bay, Burnie, Devonport and Hobart forms an important element for TasPorts’ environmental and sustainability practices.
