One Factory-One Year-One Environmental Project
BE A One-One-One MEMBER
For the One-One-One Programme, the Federation invites all companies to take part. After signing in to the programme, the company is a member. More than that, membership is treated, assessed and recognised as a continual forward process where, at the pinnacle, your company stands the chance to receive the supreme recognition as Green Industrialist of the Year. This is one of the three levels of recognition:
- Green Participant (Level One)
- Green Medalist (Level Two)
- Best Environmental Project / Green Industrialist of the Year (Supreme Level)
Green Participant
At opening, level one, the company proposes at least one environmental project for implementation. Such a project should be selected from any one of seven categories (see Project Selection).
Green Medalist
Upon successful and cumulative completion of three or more environmental projects, the participating company is recognised with a Green Medal for its efforts. With the recognition, the company is entitled to display the official Green Medal logo on its letterheads, envelopes, compliment slips, advertising and promotional materials for three years.

Each year, from various participants, the Best Environmental Project award will go to the most outstanding effort in each of the seven categories. From among these top awards will be selected the Green Industrialist of the Year.
