This month, we have achieved not one, but two significant milestones in the areas of sustainability and social impact. For the fifth year running, we have been Green Globe™certified, earning us Green Globe Gold status. This year, Marieke Dijkman, in her role as Sustainability Manager, successfully oversaw the Green Globe Certification process.

And there’s more good news: the Beurs van Berlage is now also a Certified B Corporation™!

Both certifications complement each other perfectly. Green Globe focuses primarily on how sustainably we run our venue and events, while B Corp takes a broader view of our impact as a company – on people, society and the environment.

Willemijn de Vet, Marketing Director at the Beurs van Berlage: “At the Beurs, we naturally want to treat our listed building with care and organise increasingly sustainable events. But we consider it just as important how we treat people, which organisations we collaborate with, and what role we play as an organisation in the city and society. This is why these certifications are a wonderful recognition of something our entire team has been working on together for years.”

The certifications are not the end goal, but an important milestone. We will continue working towards net zero emissions by 2050, while continuing to play an active social role in the city of Amsterdam.

A member since May 2022, the 𝗣𝘂𝗹𝗹𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘀 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗲-𝗕𝗲𝗿𝗰𝘆 is proud to announce the renewal of its Green Globe certification 🌿

Toward an Ambitious Energy Transition -

• a 100% electric hotel,
• the elimination of natural gas,
• the deployment of a heat pump system,
• the simultaneous production of heating and cooling through energy recovery.

“Every kilowatt saved is an opportunity to reduce our impact. Our mission is to continuously monitor, measure, and optimize the building’s energy performance to ensure the hotel operates sustainably, without compromising our guests’ comfort.” — Mickael Cataloni, Technical Director

Toward More Sustainable F&B -

• Seasonal produce,
• French producers,
• Plants and flowers grown in our own edible garden,
• Concrete actions to combat food waste through a partnership with HopHopFood.

“Responsible cooking isn’t just about choosing high-quality ingredients. It’s about respecting the seasons, making the most of every ingredient, and minimizing waste to offer an experience that’s as delicious as it is sustainable.” — Cedric Galais, F&B Director and Executive Chef

This certification is a recognition of our efforts, but above all, it’s motivation to go even further.

Thank you to all our teams, partners, and guests who help bring these commitments to life every day. 💚

Vers une transition énergétique ambitieuse -

Nous poursuivons la transformation de notre bâtiment avec des actions concrètes :
• un hôtel 100 % électrique,
• la suppression du gaz naturel,

Pour une restauration plus durable -

Parce que bien manger, c'est aussi consommer autrement, nos équipes privilégient :
• des produits de saison,
• des producteurs français,
• la production de plantes et de fleurs dans notre propre jardin comestible,
• des actions concrètes pour lutter contre le gaspillage alimentaire grâce à un partenariat avec Hophop Food.

"La cuisine responsable ne consiste pas seulement à choisir de bons produits. C'est respecter les saisons, valoriser chaque ingrédient et limiter le gaspillage afin de proposer une expérience aussi savoureuse que durable." — Cedric Galais, Directeur F&B et Chef exécutif

Cette certification est une reconnaissance, mais surtout une motivation pour aller encore plus loin.

Merci à toutes nos équipes, partenaires et clients qui contribuent chaque jour à faire vivre ces engagements. 💚
