Soletanche Bachy International is also an environmental partner of choice. It provides environmental solutions:
- by participating in the construction of structures with a positive impact (clean energy, green mobility, water quality),
- by implementing optimised technical processes to reduce the volume of materials (low carbon concrete, steel-less structures, electric machinery, etc.)
- and by carrying out daily actions on its worksites (fuel and energy consumption reduction, circular economy and waste recycling, biodiversity preservation, water savings, noise and disturbance mitigation).
In addition, Soletanche Bachy International is committed to create value for local communities through job creation, training & personal development, and to provide integration for local culture by embedding cultural elements in the design of its works wherever possible.
