Terms of the action or commitment

The circular economy is emerging as a necessary model, leading to a rethinking of the way we design, manufacture and build. The development of circular economy solutions and their integration into Eiffage’s activities contributes to the reduction of the pressure on natural resources.

Selective deconstruction, reuse or recycling of materials… Eiffage’s teams seek to optimise the use of raw materials by favouring material recovery processes, either internally or in partnership with external structures.

Internal support programs (dedicated funds, SEKOYA platform, pilot projects) foster the integration of the circular economy as an indispensable tool for the industries environmental transition. These efforts include, as of June 2022:

  • 23 Seed’Innov dossiers with a direct or indirect impact on the circular economy and reduction of waste;
  • 4 E-Face dossiers, 2 of which have solutions supported the Seed’Innov Fund (Recytal & Biophalt);
  • 10 Sekoya laureates: https://www.sekoyacarbonclimate.com/.

The Group’s aim is to continue financially supporting innovation, while pursuing actions that may be replicated in all our business lines.
