Cirsa Certifies 75 Gaming Venues Under Green Hall Environmental Model
Spain.- 14 October 2026 | www.zonadeazar.com Grupo Cirsa, the Spanish multinational gaming and entertainment company, has announced further progress in implementing its Green Hall environmental management model, securing SGS certification for 75 venues across six countries.
The initiative forms part of the sustainability strategy of the Blackstone-owned group and aims to improve energy efficiency, optimise resource consumption and strengthen environmental practices throughout its operations.
Cirsa intends to expand the programme significantly and finish 2026 with more than 300 certified venues.
Certification Across Six Countries
The certification was issued by SGS International Certification Services Ibérica, a specialist organisation providing inspection, verification and certification services.
The 75 venues included in the initial certification are located across:
- Spain.
- Peru.
- Colombia.
- Morocco.
- Mexico.
- Panama.
The geographical scope reflects Cirsa’s international operations and its intention to implement common environmental management criteria across different jurisdictions.
Green Hall: A Proprietary Environmental Management Model
Green Hall is Cirsa’s proprietary framework designed to promote more efficient and responsible management of its gaming venues.
The model establishes criteria for assessing and improving the environmental performance of individual properties.
Its principal objectives include reducing energy consumption, encouraging responsible resource management and introducing procedures that help identify opportunities for improvement.
The company aims to integrate these criteria into the day-to-day management of its establishments.
Environmental Criteria Assessed by SGS
The certification process examines several indicators associated with environmental performance.
The principal areas assessed include:
- Energy: monitoring and management of energy consumption.
- Energy efficiency: measures designed to optimise energy use.
- Refrigerants: management practices within individual venues.
- Water: consumption monitoring and responsible resource use.
- Environmental policies: implementation of management procedures.
- Environmental quality: conditions within premises and facilities.
The assessment provides independent verification of the Green Hall model’s application.
Programme Covers 16.4% of Cirsa’s Venues
The 75 certified establishments represent 16.4% of the 458 venues managed by Grupo Cirsa at the end of 2025.
This figure illustrates the initial scope of the programme within the company’s international operating network.
Cirsa considers the first certification phase an important milestone in the progressive implementation of environmental standards across its properties.
The objective is to extend the management framework to an increasingly significant proportion of its operations.
Certification Valid Until May 2029
The SGS certification is registered under reference ES26/00000639.
Its principal details are:
- Effective date: 21 May 2026.
- Expiry date: 21 May 2029.
- Certification body: SGS International Certification Services Ibérica.
- Initial scope: 75 venues.
Continued validity depends on the satisfactory completion of the relevant surveillance audits.
These assessments will help verify that the required procedures and environmental management criteria remain in place.
Targeting More Than 300 Certified Venues in 2026
One of Cirsa’s main commitments is to expand Green Hall substantially over the coming months.
The group expects to finish 2026 with more than 300 certified venues, compared with the 75 properties covered by the initial recognition.
Achieving this target would increase the programme’s coverage by more than four times.
Based on the 458 venues operated at the end of 2025, that figure would represent more than 65% of the network, although the final percentage will depend on the number of properties operating at the end of 2026.
Commitment to Sustainability
Cirsa believes external certifications strengthen the transparency and assessment of its environmental policies.
The company highlighted its commitment to energy efficiency, responsible resource management and continuous improvement in environmental performance.
Green Hall aims to establish verifiable procedures that support more sustainable management across the group’s gaming properties.
SGS certification introduces an independent assessment component into this strategy.
Environmental Management in Land-Based Gaming
The initiative reflects the growing importance of environmental considerations in the management of casinos and gaming venues.
These establishments require resources for lighting, air conditioning, refrigeration and general facility operations.
Within this context, environmental management systems can help identify operational efficiencies and improve monitoring of resource consumption.
The international rollout of Green Hall also enables Cirsa to apply consistent management standards across venues operating in different countries.
Next Steps and Impact
The certification of 75 venues across six countries represents the first major milestone in Grupo Cirsa’s Green Hall programme.
The company intends to extend the model to more than 300 venues before the end of 2026, reinforcing an environmental management strategy combining internal procedures with independent assessment.
The certification’s validity through May 2029, subject to surveillance audits, establishes a framework for monitoring the continued implementation of these measures.
Expanding Green Hall could strengthen Cirsa’s operational efficiency while establishing sustainability as an increasingly important component of land-based gaming venue management.
