"ALtogether more sustainable": Constellium Unveils Sustainability Targets
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Paris, 11 July, 2013 - Constellium N.V. (NYSE and NYSE Euronext: CSTM) today
unveiled a sustainability roadmap that will guide the Company's broad range of
sustainability initiatives, including active energy saving and recycling
programs. The roadmap formalizes and defines the company's long-standing
commitment to sustainability and sets ambitious goals and targets to enhance the
sustainability of Constellium's operations and business practices. The roadmap
defines four main priorities of the Company's sustainability efforts:
* reaching the highest standards of safety and skill development of
Constellium employees;
* ensuring the highest level of transparency with respect to Constellium's
governance and its partnerships throughout the supply chain including
suppliers, customers and other stakeholders;
* minimizing the environmental impact of the company's operations; and
* designing, developing and manufacturing sustainable products based on a
thorough life cycle analysis that increases, in particular, resource
efficiency across the value chain.
Constellium has defined a comprehensive set of targets for each of these
priorities, including:
* a further drop in the number of accidents, with a target of zero serious
injury incidents in 2015 and a 60% reduction in recordable cases in 2014
versus 2010;
* a continued increase in energy efficiency (10% improvement from 2010 to
2015); and
* a systematic usage of Life Cycle Assessments in the company's innovation
projects.
"Constellium takes a holistic approach to sustainability. Not only have we set
specific objectives for ourselves as a company but we also cooperate closely
with our partners on their sustainability programs," explained Laurent Musy,
Chairman of Constellium's Sustainability Council, commenting on the company's
commitments. "We highly value the collective involvement of the entire supply
chain: being 'ALtogether more sustainable' reflects our partnership approach."
"This means for example endorsing the recycling rate targets set by the industry
for beverage cans in Europe, or offering innovative solutions to our customers
and end-consumers which reduce the environmental footprint of the products they
make or use."
Constellium's 2012 Report articulates the company's long-term sustainability
goals and evidences Constellium's commitment to disclose its performance in a
regular and transparent manner through the Carbon Disclosure Project and the
Global Reporting Initiative.
The Report also reflected the company's leadership in promoting sustainability
within the aluminium industry: as a founding member of the Aluminium Stewardship
Initiative, the company is committed to actively contribute to the setting of
environmental, social and governance standards for the industry.
