Our unwavering commitment to sustainability seamlessly aligns our purpose, ‘Making the World a Better Home,’ with our vision, ‘To be a Worldwide Leader in Light and Sustainable Construction.’
We are driven by an ambition to achieve net zero emissions by 2050, reflecting our dedication to sustainable growth and minimizing environmental impact.
With 8 R&D centers globally, we are at the forefront of innovation, pushing the boundaries of our solutions while reducing the carbon footprint of our products. By integrating recycled content, enhancing reusability, and lowering energy consumption, we are working towards a greener future.
By adopting more efficient methods and processes, consumption of fuels such as coke can be reduced. These steps are integral to minimizing the environmental impact of our operations while delivering light and sustainable solutions that offer thermal comfort, acoustic privacy, and energy savings to our customers.
Energy consumption is an inherent part of any industry. However, by being mindful of our energy use, we at Saint-Gobain strive to utilize cleaner forms of energy by electrifying our heating processes and sourcing energy from renewable resources.
Through the adoption of technologies that enable water treatment and recycling, we reduce freshwater consumption and wastewater discharge. Efficient water management systems, including water optimization, closed-loop systems, and rainwater harvesting, further enhance our ability to use water efficiently and minimize wastage.
By increasing the recycled content in our raw material, we constantly strive to reduce the virgin material extracted from the environment to manufacture our products. Through this we also recover the unusable waste material which is generally sent to landfills.
