ANTICIPATING ENVIRONMENTAL CHALLENGES

The life cycle of Blachere Illumination decorations

THINKING THROUGH AND VALORIZING EVERY STEP

To creatively and thoughtfully address new ecological challenges, our patented materials have been developed following eco-design principles. At our production site, all waste (aluminum, garlands, electrical components, print structures, etc.) is collected, sorted, and removed by partner service providers specialized in recycling.

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE SEASON ENDS?

When decorations return to our Apt site, they are inspected and prepared for reuse in the second-hand market.

To reduce waste and promote reuse, we launched a local partnership in 2024 with EBE ZooVaï, which dismantles end-of-life decorations. Components are sorted for reuse (second-hand) or recycling, optimizing waste recovery while supporting professional reintegration in the Apt region.

The Eco-Friendly Lifecycle of Blachere Illumination Decorations

Blachere Illumination addresses ecological challenges with patented materials and an innovative eco-design approach. Every stage of our decorations’ lifecycle is carefully planned to reduce environmental impact. At our production site, all waste (aluminum, garlands, electrical components, print structures, etc.) is sorted and collected by specialized recycling partners. This optimized resource management supports a sustainable and environmentally friendly future.
