Enviro-Mark's five step programme provides organizations with an environmental management system.
It has 5 levels of achievement: Bronze (compliance), Silver (bronze plus identify environmental aspects & impacts, and develop a policy), Gold (silver plus monitoring of continuous-improvement targets and objectives), Platinum (gold plus operational procedures and impact management methods), and Diamond (platinum plus internal management and audit programme ). At Diamond level, a business is ready for an ISO14001 audit. Enviro-Mark NZ is based on the UK Enviro-Mark specification.
