Verescence, the world leader in glass bottles for the perfume and cosmetics industries, is clarifying its decarbonization roadmap submitted in October 2021 to SBTi*, by announcing the electrification of its furnaces. Furnace 1 at the Mers-les-Bains plant will be the Group's first furnace to use this technology in 2025.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In line with its long-standing commitment to the climate, Verescence had already committed itself in 2020 to the VERCANE (VERre CArbone NEutre) R&D project, supported by ADEME, aimed at identifying the various energy sources capable of powering glass production sustainably, including electricity.\u00a0<\/p>

The gradual electrification of its seven melting furnaces in France, Spain, the United States and South Korea is a key step towards Verescence's goal of reducing its CO2 emissions by 40% by 2034. Between 2016 and 2019, Verescence has already reduced its emissions by 10%. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project will see the light of day when furnace 1 at the Mers-les-Bains plant is rebuilt in three years' time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Marchand, General Manager France, explains: \"I'm delighted to announce this major development, which will enable us to halve our CO2 emissions in France in less than 10 years, and bring us even closer to our zero-carbon ambition for 2050. Our new electric Furnace 1, on which we have been working for over a year, will be the Group's pilot furnace.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Verescence, a pioneer in eco-designed lenses (launched in 2008), has been one of the top-performing companies in the EcoVadis assessment for three years now, and announced last December that it had been awarded an A rating by the CDP for its water management and an A- rating for its climate action.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0* In January 2020, Verescence was among the first companies in the packaging sector to commit to setting a greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction target by 2022 aligned with the trajectory of the Science Based Targets (SBTi) initiative's well-below 2\u00b0 Celsius scenario.\u00a0
