CORPORATE SPONSORSHIP | CAPELEC partners with a reforestation campaign

CAPELEC is partnering with the ONF on a project to rehabilitate a 3-hectare plot of land that was destroyed by fire in the Gardiole mountain range, between Sète and Montpellier.

The goal is to accelerate the natural process of soil recolonization and restore the biodiversity of this local heritage.

Through a consortium of five Montpellier-based SMEs, CAPELEC was keen to partner on this eco-friendly and socially responsible project with strong local roots. It is important for the company to contribute to the preservation of biodiversity and to combat global warming.

This is a large-scale project that took many months to prepare:

- surveying the existing vegetation

- marking the work site

- mulching and creating planting holes

Ultimately, this project aims to achieve three objectives:

- to aid in the reforestation of the area,

- encourage the growth of deciduous tree species that are less susceptible to fire (arbutus, ash, holm oak, olive, almond, St. Lucia cherry, stone pine, maple, etc.)

- sequester carbon

Five companies are behind this project: Aromandise, Diadom, APF Entreprises 34, Annealsys, and Capelec, all eager to contribute to preserving the biodiversity of their local environment and to commit to a sustainable development approach.
