Ukraine has become the first country in Europe and the second in the world to adopt a national standard for eco-industrial parks at the state level.

The new document establishes clear sustainability criteria and an evaluation system for the managing companies of industrial parks.

As noted, the national standard introduces a rating-based evaluation system with “gold,” “silver,” or “bronze” levels of compliance. It assesses management efficiency, process sustainability, and environmental impact.

The standard takes effect on September 1, 2025, but its provisions can already be applied by initiators and managing companies of industrial parks. The decision to approve the standard was made by Order No. 95 of the State Enterprise “UkrNDNC” on June 5, 2025.

The agency emphasizes that the next step in implementing eco-industrial parks in Ukraine will be the adoption of Bill No. 12117, developed by MPs Dmytro Kysylevskyi and Dmytro Natalukha.
