Green Trust by SOCOTEC:
- This service is dedicated to minimizing the environmental impact and optimizing energy efficiency in buildings, installations, equipment, and engineering structures.
- It encompasses actions that connect to EU standards or have been assessed for their environmental impact by CSR experts from authority bodies such as Filiance in France and the TIC Council internationally.
- A SOCOTEC expert, acting as a trusted third party, delivers a comprehensive, independent audit report covering regulatory compliance, standards requirements, building-related risks, and target performance.
Environmental impact assessment
Carbon footprint and energy audit
Carbon footprint and energy audits are crucial tools for evaluating the environmental impact of activities and identifying measures for reduction.
SOCOTEC's experts can guide you through this process, supporting your Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) approach.

Biodiversity and Health
Environment
Human activities exert increased pressure on resources like water, air, and soil, leading to pollution and degradation that can impact biodiversity and human health.
SOCOTEC experts collaborate with clients to anticipate risks and provide services such as pollution risk assessment, inspection of construction sites, and support for "green worksites" to ensure environmental and community respect.
Certification processes like ISO 14001, ISO 50001, ISO 26000, and the implementation of the ECOCYCLE circular economy label are also proposed.
