Having a positive impact on the planet and on society
Our company’s CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) commitment is based on deeply held values and the ambition to make a positive contribution to society and the environment.
Sustainable development at the heart of what we do: Sustainable development has been central to our values for several years, as we seek to reconcile economic growth with respect for the environment and social responsibility.
Action and investment: For us, CSR means contributing actively to the priorities of sustainable development and society, either through our own concrete actions or with partners involved in these areas.
Respecting CSR standards: We are committed to respecting CSR standards (EcoVadis, non-financial reporting etc.), demonstrating our concern to be transparent and ethical in our business practices.
Transparent communication: We believe in transparent communication with our stakeholders, sharing our CSR initiatives, our progress, our challenges and the results of our actions. Every year we publish a non-financial report, our carbon footprint and our progress.
Staff commitment: Our CSR commitment also plays a role in the daily lives of our employees by creating an ethical working environment and enabling the sharing of common values.
Our CSR commitment bears witness to our responsibility as a social and economic player determined to create a lasting positive impact.
“Our company invests actively in CSR to build a sustainable future that respects the planet and future generations.”
We are engaged in a strategy to lower our company’s carbon emissions. We have set an ambitious target of moving towards carbon neutrality by 2035. To achieve this, we have calculated our carbon footprint every year since 2019 and defined a strategy with actions to lower the figure by 8% a year.
We received training in calculating our carbon footprint from the experts at WeCount in 2019.
We cut our carbon emissions by 23% in two years (2020–2022)
