ECOPORTS
ECOPORTS It is the leading environmental initiative for the European port sector. As such, it offers a range of environmental management tools based on EcoPorts’ PERS guidelines, which is a global standard that has voluntary commitments that go beyond normal regulatory requirements.

Progress Status
2022: We began work with the purpose of certifying the Tocopilla port in early 2022.
2023: In April, Puerto Tocopilla initiated the verification process of the Port Environment Revision SYstem (PERS) with the aim of achieving the Ecoports Certification and to comply with our sustainability goal. With that purpose we have decided to make available to the public Puerto Tocopilla Environmental Report on our website. By doing so, we seek to foster transparency and open communication in relation to our environmental practices and to reinforce our commitment to citizens and the environment.
