Our Sustainability Promise

reduce c02 emissions

REP is committed to reducing its CO2 emissions, whatever their origins are.


REP is bound by the "Décret tertiaire" (French tertiary sector decree) which coerces administrative buildings to reduce their energy consumption by 40% by 2030 in comparison with a chosen reference year (for REP: 2015)

The renovation projects presented below are aimed at reducing the site's energy consumption.

Projects carried out

Replacement of glazing in a wing of the administrative building 

Replacement of single-glazed aluminum frames with double-glazed aluminum frames with thermal break.

Exterior insulation of the administrative buildings

Reinforced insulation of the administrative buildings frontages, with a thermal coefficient of R=3.70 m²K/W.

Relamping of the manufacturing workshop

Replacement of 921 neon lights of 120 W each (110 kWh) by 601 LED strip lights of 55 W each (35 kWh).





The expert's opinion

Stéphane Clair, Maintenance and Safety Manager

In the administrative building, energy efficiency measures, replacement of windows, and exterior insulation have reduced electricity consumption by approximately 35%.
In production workshops, switching to LED lighting has led to a reduction of around 25%.
These actions have resulted in measurable reductions in our electricity consumption and are contributing to a decrease in our associated emissions.

The Impact of Digital Transformation


Limiting the Use of Paper

Since installing our ERP system, we have been able to significantly reduce our paper consumption by digitizing many processes.
Reducing paper consumption remains an ongoing objective, with indicators and continuous improvement measures in place.

Under study:

  • The digital manufacturing workshop project, with the installation of digital workbenches giving operators access to all our drawings, methods documents and ERP. 



The expert's opinion

 

Jean-Christophe Boffet, Digital Transformation Manager
For example, over a period of one year and a half, around 10,000 orders were placed without needing to be printed or physically archived.
This decision is part of REP's eco-friendly approach for reducing its environmental impact by limiting the use of non-renewable natural resources.

Reducing the carbon footprint of transport and travel

  • Extension of the sales and service network to be closer to customers and limit travel costs, 
  • Combining multiple presses into one shipment and using renewable packing materials  
  • Establishment of teleworking to limit the environmental impact of daily commuting
