We are excited to announce that Smartis has successfully renewed the Green Star certificate, which we have proudly held in previous years. This certification reaffirms our commitment to sustainable business practices and the integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles across all aspects of our operations. The Green Star certificate is more than just a recognition; it is a testament to our progress in green transformation and our dedication to achieving climate neutrality.
What is the Green Star Certificate?

- Sustainable Management: How the company incorporates sustainable practices into its strategy and how effectively it manages climate risks and opportunities.
- Environment and Climate: Assesses the company’s environmental impact, including its carbon footprint, greenhouse gas emissions, and resource usage.
- Social Impact: Examines the company’s effect on broader society, including its employees, local communities, and overall social responsibility.
