CSR Policy & recycling

5) Working in a responsible company

We manufacture packaging and technical parts in plastic materials in line with our CSR policy but selecting materials with the lowest environmental impact. We integrate eco-design from the beginning with all the internal and external actors concerned by the product and take into account its end of life. Our products are 100% recyclable, either by shredding and reintegration into new technical parts or industrial packaging, or by compacting to make new raw material for the manufacture of plastic parts. We are also setting up collection and recycling channels for the recovery of our products at the end of their life.

The circular economy is at the heart of our strategy.
