ECT site in La Courneuve : fertile substrate production platform with Faiseurs de Terres

Substrat fertile - La Courneuve

ECT’s site in La Courneuve, Seine-Saint-Denis, recently obtained authorization to produce fertile substrate, an important step in our commitment to the circular economy.

This project will be developed in partnership with Faiseurs de Terres, a collaboration that marks a new step forward in our approach to recycling inert soil from construction sites and supporting urban greening.

Fertile substrate, a mixture of inert soil and green waste compost, represents a 100% recycled alternative to imported topsoil, helping to preserve natural resources. This process is fully in line with our strategy of reusing materials and reducing environmental impact, by giving a second life to soil from construction sites.

This project is a concrete example of the application of the circular economy, which transforms man-made materials into sustainable resources for landscaping and greening urban spaces.

We are making the circular economy a tangible reality, with innovative projects that play an active part in preserving our environment.
