The Cleaner Technology Centre has launched the fourth edition of the Environment Award for Industry with the aim of acknowledging the contribution of industry in favour of sustainable development.

The aim of these awards is to give recognition to industries or organisations which, through their policies, practices and processes help bring about, social and economic development, while reducing the impact of their operations on the environment.

Another aim of the awards is to spur more organisations to take measures in favour of the environment.

The environment award will be given in three categories: Category A - Management Award for Sustainable Development; Category B - Conservation Award for Sustainable Development; and Category C - Environment Protection Initiative Award for SMEs.

Applications will be accepted until the end of this month and winners will be announced in November. Applications will be assessed by a special committee, consisting of experts from various sectors.

The winners in each category will be awarded a specially commissioned trophy made by Mdina Glass and a certificate. The winners of Category A will also be assisted to compete in the European Environment Award Programme, run by the DG Environment of the European Commission.

Winners of the third edition of the Environment Award for Industry were Trelleborg Sealing Solutions Malta Ltd for Category A, HSBC Bank Malta plc for Category B and The Limestone Heritage for Category C.
