- Controlling atmospheric emissions and machining fluids
- Waste sorting and management (not mixing, repurposing)
- Training staff about the environment
- Implementing measurement, control and management tools
- Tests to reduce the environmental impact of emergency situations
- Transparency in terms of the authorities, partners and the public

Our commitments
In a company, it’s the men and women who create value.
In terms of safety, SOVAMEP undertakes to :
- reduce risks through staff training, risk analysis and accident reduction at source,
- allocate the human, material and economic resources needed to achieve these objectives,
- constantly modernize its production facilities.
We also demand that our service providers and people working on-site observe our policy and become involved in our continuous improvement approach. Periodically, the system, its objectives and its effectiveness are reviewed to assess areas for improvement. SOVAMEP management is convinced that the environment and safety must be incorporated into management strategy to maintain future competitiveness and ensure the company’s longevity.
