Sustaining & Reducing Our Impact

We act in alignment with nature and with the development of our Group. Controlling our environmental impact requires concrete choices, sustainable investments, and continuous improvement of our practices at every stage of our activities.

TO SUPPORT OUR HOUSES

Environmental Transition and Modernization of Production Tools

The Houses that join Charlois benefit from investments and support that enable them to optimize their production tools. They gain access to a demanding culture of sustainable oak management, technical expertise, and more energy-efficient equipment.

Optimizing workflows, reducing energy consumption, and limiting material loss are part of a collective dynamic. Our growth thus enables each House to undertake an environmental transition that would have been difficult to achieve independently.

The continuous modernization of our equipment is a central lever of our environmental transition. It improves energy performance, secures operations, and reduces material waste.

TO INCREASE ENVIRONMENTAL SKILLS

Training and Engaging to Act Sustainably

Reducing our impact also depends on people. Training, raising awareness, and engaging our teams enable each individual to understand environmental challenges and take concrete action on a daily basis.

TO STRUCTURE THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY

Enhancing Every Fiber of Oak

Through our full control of the value chain, we develop a comprehensive circular economy around oak. Every part of the tree finds a use, within a framework of maximum enhancement and waste reduction.

TO OPTIMIZE FLOWS

Limiting Transport, Reducing Our Carbon Footprint

The Group’s organization enables us to rethink logistical flows in a more responsible way. Pooling resources, coordination, and the thoughtful location of sites help reduce the distances traveled by raw materials and finished products.

TO ACCELERATE THE ENERGY TRANSITION

Relying on Renewable and Local Energy

We invest in energy solutions that are more respectful of resources, prioritizing renewable energy and biomass derived from our own oak by-products.
