Ismene Jäger, the Director and owner of the company

My training was as a Diploma Chemist, with emphasis on Biochemistry. For more than 30 years I worked in the field of ecotoxicology, toxicology, and ecological optimization of products and processes and quality management (GLP, GMP, ISO 17025). Since many years I support companies to apply for national and international Ecolabels like Blue Angel and EU-Ecolabel. In the last years I included energy management (ISO 50001) in my portfolio. I find it especially satisfying to collaborate with small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) in all questions involving environmental and health safety. Through the joint efforts and interactions with many other companies and research institutes I have good access to an exceptionally competent network of highly qualified experts at all times.
