Leading the way in sustainable transition

Sustainable construction is not just a necessity but an achievable reality. With our 480 employees, we have a responsibility to drive change and encourage all our partners to adopt sustainable practices. Our role extends beyond executing projects; we must raise awareness, advise and support decision-makers, particularly regarding long-term investments and the lifecycle of infrastructure. It’s not enough to talk about what we do; we must ensure we have the means to deliver on our promises.”

An integrated and innovative vision of sustainability

Facing environmental, social and economic challenges, our mission is to innovate while ensuring responsible practices. This second CSR report reflects our progress and our commitment to integrating social responsibility into our business model through our Schroeder 2030 strategy.”
