PLANET

RESPECT OF THE ENVIRONMENT
Production at POTTEAU Labo is eco-friendly. We opt for sustainable products and limit our ecological impact in order to operate a sustainable business.
  • ENERGY: Our 2,100 solar panels (on 6,000 m²) provide 25% of the required energy. We also reuse the heat from our EPOXY coating installation.
  • WOOD: We use PEFC- or FSC-certified wood. These labels ensure responsible forest management and trustworthy suppliers.
  • RECYCLING: We manage our waste (sorting, treating and reusing). We use as many recycled materials as possible and our waste products are reused as well. For example, we filter and reuse our waste water.
  • DUST SUCTION: Our ATEX-labeled dust extraction system improves air quality both internally and externally and reduces our electricity consumption by 40%.
  • ECOFLEX & EURO 5/6: We are constantly renewing our vehicle fleet and opt for low-emission engines.
Worldwide, 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have been agreed upon. They represent the most pressing and universal needs for the planet. POTTEAU Labo also pursues these objectives, with a special focus on four areas: clean water, sustainable energy, innovation & infrastructure and responsible consumption & production.
QUALITY MANAGEMENT
Our quality management system is ISO 9001:2015-certified. It requires an organizational structure tailored to meet all our client's requirements with each delivery of products and services. Based on our ISO quality system, we ensure that all risks of quality deviations are systematically identified and sustainably addressed.

The basic values and standards of our quality management system are a very customer-oriented approach, a motivated and committed management team, a process-based approach and continuous improvement. ISO 9001:2015 aims to optimise the assurance of uniform, high-quality products and services.

WORKPLACE SAFETY
Each year, our organisation also makes sure to secure its VCA** certificate, which proves that we apply and focus on all the points mentioned in the Safety, Health and Environmental Checklist for Contractors. Since occupational safety is one of our priorities, this VCA** certificate guarantees our company's quality and reliability, both as a contractor and as an employer.

All our employees receive training on how to manufacture and install our furniture in accordance with our safety standards. Our tools and machines, such as vacuum lifting systems and powerful extraction systems, contribute to ergonomics and safety.
