CENTRALP’s Philosophy – the ECO-CONCEPTION

CENTRALP develops, produces and integrates embedded electronic solutions and software solutions around the world. With the close involvement of a multidisciplinary R&D Department, as well as a complete and successful production unit, CENTRALP brings global and innovative solutions to the embedded systems market. CENTRALP follow its customers all throughout the world to deliver expertise and training support via a reliable and multi-purpose service.

CENTRALP wished for some of its specific developments to join the PEP ecopassport program, which makes it possible to qualify the environmental performance of the products objectively. Reliable and internationally recognized, the PEP ecopassport program validates a serious environmental approach in line with international standards enabling CENTRALP to make its products eligible for eco-responsible markets.

CENTRALP has integrated the environmental dimension from the design of its products and solutions to all stages of their life cycle. The processes concerned have thus generated particularly significant savings in material and energy consumption (Figures 2016):

  • Electricity consumption less than 27%
  • Weight of the rail console – reduction close to 30%
  • Reduction of the impact on non-fossil natural resources by 67%
  • Reduction of the impact on water pollution by 27% (equivalent to 10 700 m3 of water)
  • Use of recycled packaging.

Other benefits directly affect management and commercial development:

  • The company as a whole, benefited from qualitative spin-offs in terms of management: improvement of synergies between services, teams work on a new transversal approach, creation of new innovation prospection, creation of new competitive advantages.
  • The PEP ECOPASSPORT approach also leads to compliance with future standards requirements, especially the 2015 version of ISO14001.
  • It brings new competitive advantages, offering a real possibility to stand out from the competitors.
  • CENTRALP customers are also involved in certification processes, including “eco-passport”.

“We imagine an electronics more and more clean. CENTRALP is committed to protecting the environment by putting in place a policy of reducing its environmental impact at every stage of its process. That is why we have decided to extend this approach to our new designs and continuous improvement cycle.” – Jean-Luc Logel, CEO of CENTRALP.
