ISO 14001
Our Bio-Techne Rennes site has been made aware of environmental issues and certified ISO 14001:2015 since January 2021 by the TÜV SUD organization.
The environmental regulatory compliance of our site is reassessed quarterly in relation to regulatory changes.
More than 75% of our waste is recycled/recovered via the 7 mandatory flows (paper/cardboard, metal, plastic, glass, wood, textiles, plaster) and by setting up additional channels :
Polystyrene : membership of the Knauf Circular program
Glassine
Bio-waste : Bio-Techne Rennes is the 1st non-food company around Rennes benefiting from this collection which was previously reserved for collective catering.
Surgical masks : collection and transformation of used masks into components for the automotive industry.
We have set up periodic monitoring and optimization of water, electricity, gas, paper consumption, etc.
Various improvements are implemented :
Use of recycled materials in the composition of our boxes and transport packaging
Reuse of packaging received
Reduction of raw materials sent to our customers (paper, CDs, etc.) and disposable paper towels (distribution of hand towels to each employee)
Work as much as possible with local suppliers : around 60% of our suppliers and service providers are local.
Participation in solidarity initiatives :
KilongaManorina solidarity collection
collection of batteries for the Telethon
collection of plastic corks for les bouchons de l'espoir
setting up a collaborative book box within the site
Mobil'acteurs challenge
