Imerys is committed to a process of continuous improvement in sustainability and accountability for all its projects, determined to be a proactive player in sustainable development. 

For an outside view on these complex topics, the company has set itself ambitious ESG goals that are evaluated by internationally recognised external rating agencies. In its environmental charter, Imerys has committed itself to conserving biodiversity across all its sites, from the project phase through to end-of-life quarry rehabilitation.

Imerys recently published its first ever Biodiversity report which can be read online here.

"While we are proud of the progress made over the past seven years, as shared in our first biodiversity report, we remain humble in the face of what remains to be done. Preserving biodiversity is urgent and requires a long-term commitment and collaboration between employees, experts and communities. By combining science, local action, and genuine engagement, we aim to reduce our impact on natural heritage."
