20 years for sustainability

BESONDEREN ORTE are pioneers when it comes to sustainable venues and sustainable events. It all started more than 20 years ago with 100% electricity from renewable energies, organic juice and fair trade coffee. Our venues are the first in Germany to be certified according to the sophisticated standards of the environmental management system EMAS. We are the first company in the event industry to report according to the German Sustainability Code. And we are the first to qualify as Sustainable Partner Berlin. Our continuous demand is to link entrepreneurial action with sustainability. Due to this we believe that ecology, social issues and economy belong together!

100% green electricity

We have been sourcing all of our electricity from renewable energy sources for over 20 years. With our own photovoltaic systems, we also produce green electricity ourselves at the Umweltforum and the Tagungswerk.

Organic certified ingredients

Organic food is not only good for the environment but also healthy. They contain more secondary plant substances, more flavours, and less water. To match the organic drinks, our coffee breaks are made from organic quality ingredients.

Event ticket

Travel is the biggest factor in the carbon footprint of a venue. All guests attending venues in BESONDERE ORTE can use our venue ticket. With the train, you travel with 100% green electricity.

SMB

Sustainable Meetings Berlin makes Berlin MICE companies fit in terms of sustainability. We have been an SMB partner for five years and have been awarded five times in the highest "Leader" category. Our sustainability performance is 94% of all achievable points.

Honey from the roof

The roof of the Umweltforum not only has a photovoltaic system and is greened: it is home to several bee colonies.
