Nature in Your Sites/Location
The site transforms its extraction areas into flood excretory basins, so the town of Bellegarde is now protected from flooding in the event of stormy episodes.
But beyond that, water being a rare resource and therefore increasingly precious for all of us, the process of washing our aggregates on site is designed to recycle water!
Our aggregates take a shower (our customers demand impeccable hygiene (they are right) and the water used loaded with clay is treated for the next wash.
In this photo, here is the water after treatment.
Water is a big story for us.
