Public commitments
for 2030
Since the beginning, sustainability is a key part of our business.
Doing more with less, reducing environmental impacts, valuing the quality of life of our team, generating positive impacts on society, and ensuring a circular economy are part of our everyday life.
To reinforce our responsibility to the sustainability agenda and genuinely demonstrate to our society our desire to contribute to sustainable development, we have defined 8 commitments that should be reached by 2030, contributing to 14 SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) of the United Nations (UN).
