Success through industrial symbiosis

Futureproof your company

Both EU legislation and Danish regulations are moving towards tighter restrictions in the future, which will introduce incentives for more sustainable business development and consequences for inaction. Kickstarting the business culture within sustainability by participating in symbioses can give your company the advantage of being a first mover in the field.

Environmental initiatives secure orders
