Database Structure

• Aim: benchmarking the area at international level;

• Tool: Check list with a scoring system (Excel based) to (self) evaluate the initial status of the Industrial area with regard to the most relevant aspects: Management system, centralized infrastructures and innovative services, eco-efficiency of industrial buildings, logistics and mobility management, involvement of enterprises, communication and green marketing.


International Benchmarking of an industrial area


1) Management YES NO

1) Is there a Managing Company ?

2)Is there a management system of the industrial area for impacts monitoring, planning of improvement actions and analysis of the environmental aspects?

2) Infrastructures and centralized servicesYES NO

1)Is the industrial area provided with infrastructures and/or networks for maximizing the energy/material exchange among firms (industrial symbiosis)?

2)Are there any joint infrastructures or centralized services within the industrial area (i.e. waste/wastewater treatment plants, internal networks, telecommunication networks, energy production plants)?

3)Are there any centralized services provided by the companies within the industrial area (i.e. financial services, training, mobility manager, waste manager)?

4)Do design and management of public and private areas located within the industrial area enable to optimize people/goods transportation?

3) Energy/environmental quality of industrial buildings YES NO

1) Are there any minimum requirements set for the energy performances of industrial buildings?

2) Do companies buy energy through joint purchasing ?

4) Animation/participation YES NO

1) Is there any firms association within the industrial area?

2)Are there any actions in place to promote collaboration and synergies among the firms located in the area (workshops, regular meetings)?

3)Do firms, local authorities and stakeholders contribute to the environmental management of the area (i.e. by defining environmental improvement actions or by identifying new services/installations)?

5) Green marketing/external communication YES NO

1)Are there any actions in place for promoting green marketing within the industrial area (i.e. web site, communication tools)?

2) Does the industrial area take part to fairs/exhibitions of interest for the firms located in it?
