In 2019, Safran Aero Boosters chose to establish a Sustainable Development Department, which defined its first three areas of work:

  1. Reduce carbon emissions from its sites by increasing the share of renewable energies.
  2. Develop sustainable mobility.
  3. Increase biodiversity at production sites and their direct environment.
2022 Installations – Hedge and Flowery Meadow

Things moved quickly: the company obtained the Réseau Nature label, issued by Natagora for public and private spaces that respect and protect nature by initiating large-scale projects: planting a 1.5 km triple-row hedge, digging two ponds, discussions on the management of the site’s green spaces,…

Maintain and manage existing elements:

Triple-row Hedge and Mowing of the Flowery Meadow

The implementation of installations is only the beginning of the process, which involves establishing a management plan. This includes weeding young hedges, watering them in case of drought, carrying out late mowing, implementing differentiated management of green spaces, etc.

 

Expand Ambitions and Implement New Developments

Creation of three new networked ponds, planting over 400 meters of triple-row hedge meeting specific objectives, creation of two flowery meadows totaling 1.3 ha, installation of biodiversity-friendly equipment (elements such as nesting boxes for passerines, raptors, insects, bats, amphibians, and reptiles),…

Raise Staff Awareness and Contribute to the Dissemination of These Practices Among Site Employees and Neighboring Companies

The integration of educational panels alongside the installations is a good example of this.

Also noteworthy is the organization of a biodiversity workshop during the family day organized by the industrial company, which helped raise awareness among over 700 people with excellent feedback!
