Clarins now has a second production site. Located in Sainte-Savine, in the Grand Troyes park (10), it was built by the Elcimaï group, a specialist in industrial and logistics engineering, particularly in the cosmetics sector.
Complementing Clarins' existing facility in Pontoise (95), this new site will further secure Clarins' production in France, and provide the Group with the capacity it needs to develop its product offering.
Developed on a 12-hectare site, it includes manufacturing, packaging and storage facilities, as well as administrative offices and a control laboratory covering an area of 31,000 m². The aim is to eventually produce 100 million units a year, the equivalent of the existing site in the Paris region.
This site is part of Clarins' commitment to CSR and reflects its ambition to "make life more beautiful, and pass on a more beautiful world".
"To ensure that the site is in line with the Clarins Group's CSR commitments, Elcimaï proposed the implementation of strong decarbonization solutions: geothermal energy to heat and cool the building, photovoltaic panels to produce electricity and domestic hot water, a rainwater recovery system, an industrial wastewater treatment plant and the reuse of waste heat.explains Jean-Pierre Fradin, Technical Director of Elcimaï Ingénierie. The site thus meets HQE excellent and Breeam very good criteria.
Completed in 19 months, this second plant represents a total investment of around 135 million euros, and is expected to create 300 jobs.
