Creaplast, a subsidiary of the Velfor group, was awarded the Ecovadis bronze medal with an overall score of 64/100. This result reflects our efforts to structure our CSR approach, with an environmental score of 60/100 . This recognition encourages us to pursue and strengthen our commitments.
But beyond certifications, the environmental impact of a product is measured by concrete actions. With this in mind, Velfor initiated a study of the actual energy consumption of its thermoforming machines.
Today,Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is an essential tool for understanding the carbon footprint of our products. However, it requires precise data, particularly on power consumption. IPC, the Centre Technique Industriel de la Plasturgie et des Composites, understands this. In partnership with ADEME, it has launched a national initiative to measure the actual energy consumption of thermoforming machines.
Velfor has been asked to take part in this study, and the measurements will be carried out directly on the production sites of our subsidiaries Velfor Emballage and Velfor indsutrie. This approach is fully in line with our desire to make the ecological transition a lever for continuous improvement.
