Armor was one of the selected companies to make recommendations for environmental responsibility.
A press release said that the G7 meeting of Environmental Ministers took place in Bologna 11-12 June and Hubert de Boisredon, Chairman and CEO, Armor, talked about Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and stated: “We are strongly committed to eco-friendly innovation and disruptive technologies. Companies can have a strong impact on the long-term. The world is waiting for them to invest even more for the protection of the environment.”
Armor is well known for its “flexible and low carbon photovoltaic film since 2016” and ASCA is part of these innovations that will “revolutionize tomorrow’s industrial landscape” and it will be possible for everyone to have access to this energy as this new material which is the “only silicone free and rare metals free technology” will join all the eco innovations that Armor have launched in the realms of circular economy, remanufactured printing consumables, recyclable 3D filaments and OWA brand products as well as En Safe collector which “increases the safety, performance, durability and cycle count of lithium-ion and supercapacitors”.
Stressing the importance of developing high-tech products Boisredon said: “We must be as innovative and high-tech as possible, so that the value produced benefits our countries in terms of employment, with respect for the environment. I’m not only talking about design, but also and above all about the production of these innovations. With an investment of 60 million euros ($67million) in 5 years for the R & D and production of the film ASCA or the collector En ‘Safe®, ARMOR has already created 80 jobs on the territory. The introduction of new technologies is a source of employment and represents a fantastic hope for the French economy.”
Armor said that it has been committed to the Global Impact since 2008 and has been working on CSR objectives since 2014 and that its group “builds on the guidelines of the international standard ISO 26000, which defines how organisations can and should contribute to sustainable development”.
Boisredon concluded: “A concrete commitment to the well-being of all, whether in Western countries or in emerging countries, for whom the film ASCA ©, for example, is a valuable tool for access to energy down to the last mile. But a commitment that will not be complete without the support of the states if we want our countries to make COP21 a reality, it is necessary that states provide financial support to innovative companies. These must become the levers of public policy in favour of the environment.”
