THE BIC SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME
In 2003, the Group defined the BIC Sustainable Development Programme. Through this Programme, the BIC Group seeks to:
- Develop ecological common sense: in order to limit its consumption of natural resources, the Group strives to minimise the use of raw materials in its products and packaging, while gradually introducing new eco-friendly, recycled or renewable materials.
- Reduce its environmental impact: because BIC ® measures the environmental impact of its products, factories and transport activities, it has a basis for implementing actions to reduce the environmental impact.
- Build day-to-day relationships based on trust: BIC ® also focuses on strengthening employee skills and employability and on improving quality of life in the workplace, while promoting initiatives that support local communities.
