On the 25th and 26th of June, the Corfu Port Authority organized the 2nd Annual Conference of the SuPorts project. More than 50 ports managers and experts attended the 2 working days which did more than assessing the current achievements of the project but enabled to get new experiences, to review the evolving European legislation as well as discussing environmental management systems as well as port certifications (PERS, EMAS, ISO 14001).

The Port of Corfu’s environment and sustainability program is centered upon a triple bottom line approach whereby our leadership continually evaluates port operations for opportunities to improve efficiencies, enhance customer service, reduce environmental impacts, and create programs that help build better communities. Innovation and creativity are keys to CPA’s success.
The Port of Corfu received the ISO 14001 certification in November 2012 for its environmental management system, or EMS. The Port of Corfu is the first major port on Greece to receive the ISO 14001 certification. As of November 30, 2012, the Port of Corfu is the only Ionian port to have all its operation facilities ISO 14001 Certified for Environmental Management.
Port of Corfu has received ISO 14001 through the SUPORTS project funded by the Interreg IVC programme, however, CPA’s ISO 14001 experience will be used to transfer knowledge to the Port of Saranda & Port of Igoumenitsa for establishing and implementing their Environmental Management System under the ELPORTAL project.
