CSR permeates the sector
Unicem created a CSR label in 2018, which met with some success: in concrete, nearly 700 sites, i.e. half of the activity in France, have committed to the approach, as well as 400 sites constituting almost 30% of the turnover of French quarries. This approach encompasses several initiatives such as reducing the carbon footprint of products or improving relations with suppliers. Great efforts have been made in terms of recycling, which now reaches 70% in the sector, compared to about 50% ten years ago, and while it was almost non-existent thirty years ago. However, Unicem would like the public authorities to strengthen their support for this CSR approach through the use of labeled companies.
