La CSR Policy
A CSR Policy at the Heart of Our Concerns
We continue to implement our strategy to become a driving force in our sector and to have a positive impact on the planet. We aim to contribute to a better, more harmonious world that respects both people and the environment.
We believe this is everyone’s responsibility.
Pragmatism and Ambition
The Nextpool Group takes current environmental challenges into account in developing its activities, through a comprehensive environmental approach that brings greater coherence and efficiency to its actions.
For several years, we have formalized our commitments in our CSR charter.
We aim to act with full transparency with our business partners, respecting our stated values and commitments. Our employees are our greatest asset; we protect their health, ensure their safety, support the development of their skills and well-being, promote open social dialogue, and foster a collective awareness of the impact of our activities on the environment.
Social
Notre charte RSE permet de nous mobiliser sur des actions ciblées afin de préserver nos équipes, notre planète et sa biodiversité.
Our CSR charter enables us to focus on targeted actions to protect our teams, our planet, and its biodiversity.
Environment
Dans nos process de fabrication et notre processus de commercialisation, nous menons des actions concrètes, selon plusieurs axes.
In our manufacturing processes and commercial operations, we carry out concrete actions across several key areas.
Before launching a new product on the market, we assess its eco-profile during the pre-project phase to optimize its environmental impact throughout its entire lifecycle.
Substitution des composants « polluants » et matières non éco-sourcées par des composants neutres pour les utilisateurs et non-impactant pour l’environnement.
Exemple : nous commercialisons en avant-première une gamme de liners avec un plastifiant sans phtalate.
Augmentation de la performance des produits
Exemple : nous avons conçu un profil de lame de couverture permettant d’augmenter l’isolation thermique du bassin (diminution du besoin en énergie de chauffage) et de réduire la perte d’eau par évaporation.
Sobriété des produits
Nous choisissons les composants de nos produits et améliorons leur définition pour qu’ils soient parfaitement dimensionnés à leur destination sans fonction superflue.
Amélioration des emballages de nos produits
Exemple : nous faisons en sorte d’utiliser 100 % de matière recyclée pour nos approvisionnements en carton.
Circular Economy
Reuse in Our Production
Example: we manufacture a specific liner made with 30% new liner offcuts.
Increasing the use of recycled or eco-generated raw materials
We ask our suppliers to propose alternatives to components made solely from non-sustainable virgin raw materials.
End-of-life product recovery under the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) framework
We work with recycling specialists who provide solutions for processing used products.
Waste:
Reduction, sorting, and fight against circular waste
Reduction of On-Site Waste and Waste Minimization
We reduced the weight of our waste relative to turnover by 5% compared to the previous year.
Improved Waste Sorting for Better Recycling
Example: we are increasing the separation of materials and colors to enhance recovery.
Optimization of Purchases and Production to Limit Manufacturing Offcuts
We adjust component sizes to match new pool dimensions to minimize offcuts.
Reduction of Paper Consumption
Example: we digitize issued invoices
Carbon Footprint
Energy Management in Our Processes
We monitor and optimize energy consumption at each site in relation to our activities.
Group Carbon Footprint
Nextpool has engaged a specialized firm to calculate the group’s carbon footprint and identify levers to reduce it.
Reducing the Carbon Footprint of Product Transportation
Example: we deliver automatic pool covers using a dedicated truck fleet that optimizes routes and is equipped with onboard trolleys for autonomous unloading.
Reducing the Carbon Footprint of Our Supply Chain
We prioritize relationships with local, regional, and national suppliers with equivalent services. Our products are manufactured in France.
