Who are we? How do we act? What do we commit to? How do we do it?

Committed to 2026

Evolving and transforming to meet the challenges of sustainable development: this is the objective of our 2020-2026 Transition Plan. Co-written collectively by team members from over 30 countries, with our human resources, quality, compliance and finance teams, our plan is built on three main pillars: developing people, preserving nature and creating sustainable value.

Our goal: -20% reduction in absolute CO2 emissions by 2026, based on emissions measured in 2021.
