Regulatory energy audits were conducted at most of the Group's industrial sites in France in 2023. In parallel, certain tertiary sites of GROUPE ATLANTIC are subject to the tertiary eco-efficiency scheme, which requires them to reduce energy consumption by up to -60% by 2050 compared to a reference year measurement.
Regarding water resource preservation, we are continuously researching production techniques to reduce water consumption, and we optimize the quality of discharged production water. For example, our towel dryer production site in Izmir now uses wastewater for the production of one of its product lines, as well as spray nozzles to clean the products. This new process has led to saving up to 5m3 of water per day at the site.
