Since 2021, Freie Universität has held the EMAS seal of approval, the highest seal for sustainable environmental management in the European Union. Departments and facilities are audited every year according to the strict criteria.
The GreenLab project of the Department of Biology, Chemistry, Pharmacy is aimed at wet laboratories and biological, chemical and pharmaceutical laboratories. We want to help research groups to make their consumption of resources - such as energy, water and waste - more sustainable.
We are now offering support with certification through the external provider My Green Lab. In future, we will also publish information on environmentally friendly laboratory practices, templates for their implementation and examples of best practice.
