GROUPE ATLANTIC is a founding member of ECOSYSTEM, an eco-organization responsible for the collection and processing of End-of-Life Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE) in France. The Group actively participates in governance bodies within ECOSYSTEM (board of directors and operational committees) to monitor the performance of EEE collection and its financing.

In 2023, ECOSYSTEM collected and processed, on behalf of the GROUPE ATLANTIC, 1 665 378 million end-of-life electrical equipments. Thus, the theoretical collection rate of EEE, relative to the contribution of the GROUPE ATLANTIC, is 55.1%. For sales made outside France, subsidiaries adhere to local eco-organizations or have implemented an individual system for end-of-life management of devices.

In 2023, our sites generated 25,554 tonnes of industrial waste, 93% of which was non-hazardous, representing a 6% reduction compared with 2022.

Increasingly, waste management procedures are being implemented on the sites, at least with the separation of hazardous and non-hazardous waste. In most of them, waste sorting at the source is ensured with computerized tracking of traceability (volume, disposal route, removal company).

For example, our Fontaine site in France is making great strides in waste management and reduction: 90% of wood is recycled into pallets, and plastic films previously disposed of in HIW* are now recycled, as is expanded polystyrene waste.

*DIB: Domestic and Industrial Waste.
