Who must obtain a Blue Certificate?

Facilities whose annual water withdrawal exceeds the regulatory threshold for their sector, plus municipalities, irrigation facilities and large campuses defined in the regulation.

How long does the process take?

A typical project runs 8–14 weeks, plus up to 60 days for the official SVBS evaluation.

Do you support the data collection?

Yes. We design the metering plan and help you compile at least 12 months of consumption data.

Is ISO 46001 required?

It is not mandatory for the Blue Certificate but it is a scoring criterion for the Green and Turquoise levels.

Do you work outside Istanbul?

Yes, we serve all 81 provinces with a hybrid on-site and online model.
