• CONDAT again PLATINUM MEDAL

  Posted in Award, Innovation, Lubricants, Sustainability on Apr 03, 2023

  CONDAT, an international specialist in industrial lubricants for more than 165 years, is pleased to announce the renewal of its "Platinum" medal awarded by EcoVadis, the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) platform. The company has demonstrated its commitment through concrete actions and its efforts to evolve its business model over the long term. This proactive approach allows the company to keep this medal obtained in 2021. With this result, CONDAT remains in the TOP 1% of the best rated companies in the world by EcoVadis.

  

  Initiated decades ago, CONDAT's responsible commitment is based on one of the Group's core values: BUILD TO LAST. CONDAT is thus one of the precursors in the development of industrial lubricants with a reduced environmental impact, launching its first biodegradable lubricants more than 20 years ago. The company also integrates sustainability goals at every stage of product life, as evidenced by its unique eco-designed product self-assessment system, the Lubriscore®.

  Reducing the carbon impact of its production sites is also one of its priorities. In 2022, significant efforts were made for example on the French site in terms of reducing water consumption (-15%), electricity consumption (-18%) and on transport, the company was able to reduce its CO2 emissions by 8% compared to 2019.

  

  In February 2023, CONDAT integrates the Climate Enterprise Convention (CEC). The ambition of this program is to support, for 10 months, companies and their managers to move towards the 'regenerative company', that is to say to go beyond the ambition of a responsible company by moving towards a business model that contributes to the environment.

  With the climate challenges, CONDAT's objective is to encourage social and environmental commitment by offering a safe, efficient and least impactful product offer. Through this ‘raison d'être’, the company wants to show that a new path is possible thanks to the strength of its collective.

• CONDAT RECEIVES THE PLATINUM MEDAL ECOVADIS

  Posted in Award, Industry 4.0, Innovation, Lubricants on Nov 19, 2021

  Condat, international specialist in industrial lubricants for more than 165 years, has obtained the "Platinum" level recognition on the EcoVadis Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) platform. With this result, Condat is now part of the TOP 1% of the best rated companies in the world by EcoVadis.

  

  Committed to responsible performance

  Initiated several decades ago, Condat's responsible commitment is based on one of the Group's core values: BUILD TO LAST. Guided by this historical value, the company has been pursuing a long-term strategy since 1854 that contributes greatly to its longevity. Condat is thus one of the precursors of the development of industrial lubricants with reduced environmental impact, and launched more than 20 years ago its first biodegradable lubricants. Anchored in strong human values, the family group is structured around an assertive social policy.

  In 2018, Condat went further in its CSR approach by joining the international EcoVadis platform. Its CSR performance is evaluated each year by an independent body according to 21 criteria divided into 4 themes: Environment – HR and Human Rights – Business Ethics – Responsible Purchasing. These CSR assessments are based on authentic evidence and are internationally recognised. Initially silver, Condat progresses until obtaining in October 2021 the 'Platinum' level, the highest distinction awarded by EcoVadis.

  The company's objective is to reduce its ecological footprint and guide its organization towards sustainable value creation that takes into account social and environmental issues. It integrates, among other things, the Sustainable Development Goals at each stage of the life of its products, as evidenced by its unique system of self-evaluation of its eco-designed offer: the Lubriscore®. Condat also wants to influence its entire value chain, and relies on a collective of women and men involved to support customers and partners towards responsible performance, in a spirit of co-development.

  An award for the entire Condat Group

  The Platinum medal was awarded by EcoVadis to all the subsidiaries of the Condat Group. Indeed, if the group exists since 1854 in France, it has gradually developed internationally to favor customer proximity, with locations in the United States, China and Brazil. The group then diversified into the Health-Beauty market, through Laboratories specializing in the manufacture and distribution of organic and natural products (Laboratoires BEA and Sicobel) which today offer different ranges of cosmetic products (Brands BcomBio, Placentor...) and other products (Brands Green Tribu, Solens ...) dedicated to well-being through a varied offer open to the greatest number.
