Noord Natie Odfjell Antwerp Terminal has been awarded the prestigious Voka Sustainable Entrepreneurship Charter for 2025, marking another milestone in the terminal’s commitment to environmental and social responsibility. The recognition comes following the successful implementation of 10 new sustainability initiatives aligned with the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The terminal operator earned the accolade after undergoing a comprehensive evaluation by an external committee, which assessed the company’s sustainability efforts and their measurable impact. This achievement represents the second consecutive year that Noord Natie Odfjell Antwerp Terminal has received this distinguished recognition from Voka – Kamer van Koophandel Antwerpen-Waasland.
The company’s sustainability programme encompasses a broad range of initiatives targeting key areas including energy efficiency, educational partnerships, employee well-being, and biodiversity conservation. These efforts demonstrate the terminal’s holistic approach to sustainable business practices that extend beyond operational efficiency to encompass broader environmental and social impact.
“The charter serves as both recognition and motivation for Noord Natie to continuously advance its sustainability policy,” the company stated. The award reflects the collective efforts of the terminal’s workforce, strategic partners, and the supporting framework provided by the Antwerp-Waasland Chamber of Commerce.
Looking ahead, Noord Natie Odfjell Antwerp Terminal has committed to implementing an additional 10 sustainability actions in the coming period, reinforcing its dedication to continuous improvement in environmental stewardship and sustainable business practices. This forward-looking approach positions the terminal as a leader in sustainable port operations within the region.
