100 million euros<\/strong>, the result of balanced and visionary management;
a strategy focused on quality and continuous improvement, minimizing after-sales service calls and aiming for 100% regulatory compliance.

Protecting our environment is at the heart of our mission. Not because we have to, but because it is our duty to act\u2014and that is what we have been doing since our founding. Every device we design is engineered for optimal energy efficiency while minimizing its carbon footprint.

Our 2022 carbon footprint report<\/a> demonstrates transparency: 222<\/strong>,582 tons of CO2<\/strong> emitted, 92%<\/strong> of which is linked to the use of our appliances<\/strong>. This finding fuels our commitment to innovate and guide our customers toward more responsible consumption.<\/p>

Our concrete commitments:<\/strong>
Optimize product usage and extend product lifespans through educational kits such as the \u201cFirst Fire\u201d kit and a dedicated<\/u><\/strong><\/a>
customer portal<\/u><\/strong><\/a>; reduce waste and prioritize recyclable materials;
generate green energy with solar installations and expand our production capacity.

Our goals by 2029:<\/strong>
100% of appliances achieving an efficiency rating of over 77%.
Installation of charging stations at our French sites.

Our commitment extends beyond our borders: we support the Plantons pour l\u2019Avenir<\/a><\/em> fund, contributing to the sustainable management of 66.7 hectares<\/strong> of forest and the planting of over 81<\/strong>,000 trees<\/strong>.

The ECOVADIS Bronze Medal,<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/a> renewed at the end of 2025, is a recognition of our efforts, but above all an encouragement to go further.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\t\t
