the three divisions (Caen, Grandvillars, Kierspe
and Saint-Brieuc). It starts by an evaluation of the
Safety Culture, in order to determine the detailed
support program for each site. The approach
is a long-term investment, fromwhich LISI
anticipates long-term results.
Impact on the environment:
a long-term approach
Each year, LISI monitors some environmental
indicators in order to track the impact of
its production plants on the environment.
Between 2010 and 2011, water consumption
in proportion to production fell by 19% on
LISI’s sites. While water has little involvement
in the processes implemented by the Group
(it is mainly used for parts washing and
surface treatment), the improvement actions
launched since 2010, mainly individual, are
now bearing fruit. They were accompanied by
work undertaken on the sites to detect possible
problems regarding leaking pipes.
71% of the energy consumed
by LISI AUTOMOTIVE
Energy consumption, which has also been
the subject of specific measures, is mainly
of electrical origin. It represents 58% of the
Group’s consumption and concerns almost
exclusively the power of machine tools. Natural
gas accounts for 39% of the Group’s primary
consumption and concerns the heating of the
buildings and heat treatment operations. This
latter specificity explains the high consumption
levels of LISI AUTOMOTIVE, which alone absorbs
71% of the energy needed to run the Group’s
factories, against 28% for LISI AEROSPACE and 1%
for LISI MEDICAL.
Energy is the issue on which LISI’s sites have most
worked in 2011. The Group was thus able to
reduce its energy consumption by 14% compared
to 2010. Many actions have been implemented
by individual sites to achieve this result, such
as looking for air leaks, replacing oversized
compressors with variable flow compressors,
improving equipment maintenance, or adapting
the production tools to the exact requirements.
Some heat treatment furnaces have been resized
within LISI AEROSPACE.
Directly related to energy consumption, the
amount of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
increased by 6% between 2010 and 2011, being
the equivalent to 700 tons of CO
2
. However,
relative to the activity, the production of CO
2
per
€’000 produced has improved by 17% all sites
combined, confirming the Group’s improved
management of energy consumptions.
