Chargeurs published its 2023 CSR report
As a part of Chargeurs' Group, we are proud to share our ongoing journey towards sustainability and innovation.
In its 2023 Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) report, Chargeurs presents notable achievements in reducing environmental impact and enhancing employee wellbeing. It underscores Chargeurs' dedication to sustainability, detailing concrete actions and improvements across its global operations.
- 5.3% in CO2/Mm2 emissions were down in 2023, due in large
part to major energy efficiency initiatives implemented at key Group production sites. The company remains commited to reducing its environmental impact and lowering purchasing- related emissions in 2024.
The Group invested heavily in safety education, dedicating over 11,000 hours to training, a 13% increase compared to 2022. This focus on comprehensive safety training demonstrates Chargeurs' ongoing efforts to foster a secure and supportive working environment.
If we focus on Novacel's achievements:
At Novacel Cranbury, located in New Jersey in the US, efforts made in relation to production activities resulted in 28% waste reduction.
In Italy, implementing a three-year program involving a number of different technologies reduced the water use/Mm² ratio by 39% between 2020 and 2023. The first phase involved the integration of a water (and energy) recovery system into the design of the new solvent recovery unit.
The second major phase involved the implementation of a unit to “clean” the water by passing it over activated carbon for reuse in steam production. The site is seeking to make further progress in future years and is reviewing other innovations.
Last but not least, it is important to note that Novacel remains a leader in the incorporation of post-consumer recycled plastic, working to favor renewable resources and minimize the amount of material used thanks to its Oxygen range of products.
