From root to treetop (“De sol en cimes”): A naturally sustainable partnership with the ONF.
Since 2008, BALSAN has been supporting the French National Forestry Agency (ONF) with a number of different initiatives, especially in the forests located near our production facilities.
• Replanting species of oak tree which are better suited to our current climate.
• Educating local primary school children in Indre about forest protection.
Sport in nature: setting up a permanent orienteering course in the heart of the Chateauroux forest.
Trees are well known for their capacity to absorb and store carbon dioxide. They play a crucial role in the fight against climate change. but their role doesn’t stop there: they can also absorb many other airborne chemical compounds. We underestimate forests’ abilities to absorb atmospheric pollution.
