Distribution: our commitments around the world

Unselected

Transporting our products from their manufacturing location to your home, supplying energy to our stores or warehouses: all our activities have an impact on the environment. To reduce it, we have chosen to develop the use of renewable energies and take action on transport.

Renewable energy priority

It was necessary to make a transition towards renewable energy, to reduce our buildings' environmental impact. In September 2018, we subsequently joined the worldwide RE100 initiative.

Where does this energy come from?

The idea is to produce solar panel powered energy on our sites, where possible, or to buy renewable energy through purchase agreements with certificates of origin.

Our transport commitments and measures

In a product's life cycle, transport is not the most polluting stage. We have subsequently chosen to concentrate our efforts, as a priority, on our product design and manufacturing to reduce our carbon footprint.

This hasn't prevented us from taking measures relating to the transport part.

The purpose of this project is to perform a worldwide assessment, allowing us to precisely identify the areas for improvements and set ourselves goals for the years to come.

We believe in the principle of subsidiarity because every region has their own specific challenges and issues. It means the decisions should be taken as closely as possible to where they have an impact. We are more involved in our decision making, and that makes our measures relevant to everyone's needs. As a result, each country then decides on measures that they want to conduct locally.

Designing our products to reduce their environmental impact

Our ecodesign approach integrates environmental considerations into product development, with the aim of reducing the impact throughout their life cycle. It serves as a playbook for our design team to develop performance-driven, sustainability-focused solutions.

Support our suppliers with the decarbonisation of production

Because the use of renewable energy sources is essential to drastically reducing the CO2 impact.
