Type of Pledge
Goal 1
By 2025, we fully certify half of our finished products for 10 years, based on internal eco-design protocols*, extending their service life without after-sales service or maintenance.
* Vaucher Manufacture Fleurier specifically uses the term "eco-design" to refer to "measures taken to extend the life of the product". These certification measures, which include compliance with the REACH standard, make for high reliability and robustness of the product, simulating 10 years of normal use without failure, thus extending obsolescence, and reducing overconsumption. Starting at 25% of finished products in 2023, by 2030 100% of our products will be certified for 10 years.
