In 2023 our total water withdrawal was 244 ML (megaliters), with 56% from the public supply network and 44% from groundwater.
In 2023 our water withdrawal slightly decreased by 4% (compared to 2022).
Our recycling plants, Ecoibéria and WorldPET contribute to 55% of our water withdrawal, as recycling is a water intensive process.
We use Aqueduct's Global Water Risk Mapping tool from the World Resources Institute (WRI) to understand which plants operate in high water-stressed areas so we can implement tailored actions.
In 2023, Logoplaste withdrew 56 ML of water from areas with high to extremely high-water stress, a 20% decrease from 2022, and corresponds to 23% of Logoplaste’s total water withdrawal in 2023.

Every single pellet is accounted for.
Attention to detail is how you keep, and maintain, a clean environment.
Operation Clean Sweep aligns with government requirements in France. Thomas Bienfait is proud to share what they have done.
Since 2016 Logoplaste France has been part of OCS – Operation Clean Sweep. Logoplaste Cambrai, Logoplaste Lons and Logoplaste Vienne have all signed the letter of commitment, pledging to this noble initiative.
But that is not all, tailored technical as well as procedure improvements, training and awareness have been implemented for our teams and key stakeholders, so that everyone along the supply chain is onboard with preventing pellet and flake loss. We have also shared this project with our customers, so together we can strengthen our risk assessments and define joint actions.
All these measures enabled us to obtain the "Prevention of Loss of Industrial Plastic Granules" (GPI) Certification for each site in 2022, just a few months after the publication of French decree 2021-461.
All our teams are involved, and new arrivals are made aware of this as soon as they join Logoplaste. Obtaining the certification and keeping it requires constant attention to details, when the entire team is on the same page, everyone can contribute to protecting our environment on a daily basis.
Only together can we shape a better environment!
