Environment
Advanced participant of the United Nations Global Compact, Naval Group is actively participating in the collective effort to preserve the planet, an urgent question for this century.
While naval defence is currently exempt from the obligation to comply with regulations from the International Maritime Organisation in particular, Naval Group is committed to reducing its impact on the environment and our climate. For over ten years already, Naval Group has been carrying out fundamental work on the ecodesign policy for its ships and marine infrastructures in order to prevent and control the effects associated with its products and industrial processes.
The company’s environmental approach has been ISO 14001 certified since 2008. Three principles define these eco-responsibility requirements, whether or not they are governed by the legislator: prevention of the effects related to our industrial activities and the reduction of our impact on the environment, reduction of the environmental footprint of ships, services and infrastructures over the entire life cycle, and finally, participation in the fight against global warming by reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
