Our CSR commitment
Driven by a deep-seated commitment since 1991, the Itancia Group has taken a wide range of initiatives to ensure that it plays a sustainable role in its environment.
Together with our employees and our ecosystem, we are pursuing a continuous improvement process steered by an internal sustainable development committee, focusing on environmental, social and economic issues.
Since 2009, we have also been carrying out a carbon audit, filed with ADEME, which enables us to measure our progress in reducing our impact.
In 2022, we continued our efforts to reduce our energy consumption. The implementation of LPO actions has led to a 95% increase in the number of species of flora and fauna at our La Jubaudière and Valanjou sites.

For him, her, and us
To fight exclusion and all forms of discrimination, we have set up social and charity initiatives:
• 1 in 4 employees are safety-qualified
• 52% of employees are women
• 24% of appointments were through internal promotion
• Establishment of a Nature Club to raise our employees’ children’s environmental awareness in a fun and interactive way

Equal pay is a key issue for us. In 2023, our gender equality index was 93/100, and was divided like this:
• Gender pay gap: 34/40
• Individual wage increase gap: 35/35
• Employees on maternity leave who have had a pay rise during the reference period: non applicable
• Number of people of the under-represented gender in the 10 highest wages: 10/10
• Promotions distribution gap: 15/15
