What vision for<br />

the environment?<br />

CLéMENCE SIRET<br />

REACH - ECO-DESIGN MANAGER<br />

<strong>Saft</strong> takes a pro-active approach to environmental needs,<br />

anticipating developments and supporting legislators at various<br />

levels. <strong>Saft</strong> complies with the RoHS and REACH legislation,<br />

often exceeding compliance requirements.<br />

Special efforts have been reserved for <strong>Saft</strong>’s pioneering Life Cycle<br />

Assessment (LCA) programme, which leads to a much better<br />

understanding of the environmental impacts of batteries in their<br />

manufacturing, use, and end-of-life phases. LCA provides a series<br />

of impact measurements that were not previously available.<br />

They can be used by customers for their own LCA programmes.<br />

This will remain a key strategic area of development for <strong>Saft</strong><br />

in the coming years.<br />
