ECT assesses the environmental and social footprint of projects with a new tool As part of its environmental approach, ECT has adopted an indicator for the design and construction of its sites. This indicator enables us to assess the environmental and social impact of our non-built development projects using soil from construction sites. The assessment methodology was developed through the involvement of all the company’s departments. And with the support  of experts (sociologist, ecologist, farmer, acoustician, etc.) to guarantee a high level of method robustness. A 15-indicator evaluation  The 15 indicators cover a wide range of ESG issues. Dnvironmental issues

As part of its partnership with Astredhor Seine-Manche, ECT visited the Saint-Germain-en-Laye plant. The current experiment analyses different plots, vegetated with topsoil or fertile substrates produced by ECT . The protocol analyzes the development of perennials and lawns.  3 three types of fertile substrates were tested: marl-limestone, silty-clay and sandy-loam. This visit was an opportunity  to take stock of the situation. Initial results on different types of fertile substrate appear to be quite conclusive.

As part of its partnership with ECT, the Crécelles paragliding club in the Yvelines region of France was able to acquire a brand-new two-seater paraglider in early 2021. In October, the club, in collaboration with the Thermique Francilien club, organized a day of discovery for people with disabilities.  Around twenty people, mostly in wheelchairs, took advantage of this initiative. ECT is delighted to have been able to contribute to this initiative.
