Bluestar Silicones

The day is dedicated to a major clean-up of outside access points to the plant and inside areas. There are over fifty people from production, Research and Development, support services, functions and Lyon’s Head Office expected to help to pick up the litter, detritus and bulk items. In 2008 the teams collected 1.7 tons of waste which gives us a great target for 2009!
.

The day will be organised for the third year running and will be an important moment with the support of Bluestar Silicones’ employees. It is a good team occasion to focus on the working environment and an opportunity to meet up with colleagues from all departments and workshops for the good cause of our collective and personal commitment to sustainable development.
