Invest today for a responsible tomorrow
Culturally, the pinnacle of our achievements lies in this “wow!” effect. »…It is the magical moment when the amazed gaze encounters the dazzling materialization of a conceived idea: l’expérience client est notre boussole…
Always anchored in the DNA of Culture d’Objet, responsible production has today become a priority shared by all. Together we can catalyze change. Culture d’Objet fully mobilizes its resources to offer solutions to your sustainable development challenges: 2vies.
Through this new program, we are opening new horizons, concretizing our commitment to a responsible future.
Our new program, 2vies, embodies our ambition to make our activity more responsible and virtuous:
aims to offer you the realization of projects using virtuous, reusable, storable and reconditionable materials for new productions. It is an invitation to take a step together towards a more sustainable future.
2vies: Identified Issues, Strong Actions
Driven by our ambition, determination, and faithful to our values of Quality, Integrity, Proximity, Trust, Purpose Culture has defined the priorities and action levers necessary for the development of its CSR Commitments charter.
Priority 2vies
Support our customers towards more virtuous solutions by reducing the environmental impact of our activities in close collaboration with our partners.
• Integrated approach to Sustainable Development, including frequent measurement of performance indicators to guarantee the satisfaction of all our stakeholders: customers, employees, suppliers, subcontractors, and society as a whole.
• Establishment of local partnerships with reuse sectors and recycling centers to ensure responsible management of materials.
Strong actions
More than words, these are actions that have brought our CSR commitments to life with an investment of more than €4 million over the year 2023.
Environment
Our entire production site is now equipped with low-consumption LEDs. We built a new 2600m2 storage building, entirely covered with photovoltaic panels, thus making our production site completely autonomous thanks to its production of renewable energy. Our commitment to sustainable mobility has materialized through the acquisition of electric vehicles. As part of our expansion projects, we have preserved 2000m2 as a biodiversity reservoir zone, dedicated to the protection of pollinators through a flowering fallow.
Social
In order to promote quality of life at work, we have created new modern, spacious, bright social premises, with large bay windows opening onto a wooden terrace and green spaces conducive to relaxation. A new car park, equipped with electric charging stations and an enclosed and covered bicycle storage room, encourages our employees to adopt carpooling and responsible transport. We have modernized and transformed our collaborative work spaces for our R&D and CNC programming services. The emphasis is on skills development, with 2,345 hours of training provided in 2022 for 40 employees.
Specific training on eco-design and the study of the carbon impact of our achievements was carried out for our employees. We have strengthened our team with the recruitment of a CSR/QSE manager and the creation of around ten new jobs.
Territorial
Compliant with the “Climate and Resilience” law with an objective of zero net artificialization (ZAN) by 2050, Culture d’Objet allows new companies to establish themselves in our territory, to recruit, to also enter into partnerships local. This action led us to share our land to build 4 relay workshops in order to create synergies and pool our resources, our skills and our waste areas.
