Of all these sources, our activity accounts for just 0.3% of the primary microplastic residues present in the oceans. This tiny fraction concerns industrial plastic granules, released even before they are transformed into finished products. Although this share is relatively small, we take our responsibility very seriously.
What we are doing to further reduce this footprint:
🔍 Rigorous control of our industrial processes to prevent granules from escaping.
♻️ Filtration and recovery systems in our facilities to capture particles at source.
📢 Ongoing awareness-raising among our teams and partners of the environmental impact of microplastics.
Aduty to set an example, even at 0.3%
Althoughour contribution is marginal compared with other sources such as synthetic textiles (35%), particles from tire wear (28%) or urban dust (24%), we believe that every gesture counts in preserving our oceans.
Reducingunintentional emissions to zero is our long-term goal.
