Obermurtaler Brauerei GmbH - Austria
EMAS as an instrument to “improve every day in every
way”
As of its creation in 1990, the brewery has been very successful.
Today it is an institution in Murau renowned for its
commitment towards future generations and neighbours
and customers ensuring that the co-operative pays special
attention to the preservation of the environment. It is for this reason that the enterprise holds with pride the
EMAS registration No. A-000001 at the Federal Environment
Agenc
Why EMAS?
The decision by Obermurtaler Brauerei GmbH to obtain
EMAS registration was guided by the desire to constantly
satisfy the customers’ high quality requirements and environmental
awareness in a still intact area, where the
economy is mainly based on agriculture, tourism and numerous
small businesses. For the company itself, actively
dealing with environmental matters is crucial to making
long-term provisions for the future. This is also underlined
by the fact that the brewery wants to become one of Austria’s
trendsetters in operational environmental protection
(a central principle of environmental policy according to
which potential environmental impacts shall be prevented
in advance or rectified at the source).
