Valenciaport is fully committed to protecting the environment and to sustainable development. Parallel to the spectacular growth in goods traffic and the ongoing extension of its facilities, Valenciaport has developed an environmental policy and has implemented a series of tools to maintain a balance between the increase in port activities and the concept of protecting the natural environment.. Port of Valencia For Valenciaport, ecological values are not a mere declaration of good intentions or another paper to fill in. On the contrary, respecting the environment is part and parcel of the port authority’s business strategy, forming an ethical commitment that extends to all members of the Port Community. This commitment with the environment is defined in its Environmental Policy which contains the general environmental principles for the protection and improvement of the port environment while committing itself to develop an environmental management system which, besides including all members of its organisation in sustainable management responsibilities, also spreads the need for all companies established in the three ports to assume this policy.
