Our carbon footprint is the total environmental impact of our activities. These repercussions are mainly determined by the use of raw materials, our energy consumption and our logistics platform.
This is why reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is at the heart of our environmental program.
To do this, we have implemented several actions thanks to the Bilan Carbone® carried out in 2019, in particular:
A selective sorting garbage can has been set up at the Kirène Group’s headquarters to allow everyone in the building to recycle all waste. Thanks to a partnership with CIPROVIS, a waste collection and recovery company, we give them a second life.

1.1 Partnership with PROPLAST
Building on its commitment to environmental protection and sustainable development, Kirène strives to reduce its carbon footprint, continuously improve its environmental performance in all aspects of its activities and establish partnerships with suppliers to distribute its products in an ecological way.
In accordance with law n°2020-04 of January 08, 2020, the Kirène Group has decided to assume its extended responsibility as a producer and to contribute to this will of the State by implementing an individual program of collection and recovery of plastic waste, in particular plastic bottles.
Thanks to this innovative program, consumers will be able to drop off their plastic bottles at collection points managed by Recuplast, the leader in the collection and recycling of plastics in Senegal. These plastics will be transformed into materials that will be used in the manufacture of new new products (garbage cans, trash cans, shovels, basins, public benches and other innovative uses).
To implement this program and contribute to the construction of a circular plastics economy, the Kirène Group is committed to working with Proplast Industrie through Recuplast on 02 priority areas:
All the plastics collected within the framework of this individual program will be managed according to the provisions of the law (reuse, reuse, recycling, energy recovery, etc.).
In addition to the general objective, the specific objectives of this project are multiple:
The expected results of this project are multiple:
The Kirène Group also supports distributors, partners and HORECAs (hotels, bars and restaurants) in the management of their plastic materials through the installation of collection bins.
This plastic is collected by PROPLAST INDUSTRIE through RECUPLAST then recovered in a logic of circular economy.
As part of its corporate social responsibility, the Kirène Group is launching an environmental support program in partnership with the Collectif des Restaurateurs de la Corniche des Almadies (CRCA) and the municipality of Ngor.
This program, which aims to be ecological, operational, with simple tools adapted to the size of each restaurant, aims to support establishments in the recycling of plastic and cans thanks to a partnership with TRIVALOR, a waste sorting and recovery structure. .
By joining this program, committed restaurants will be able to promote their environmental approach, through concrete actions, which will ultimately allow them to gradually reduce their impact on the environment.
From an economic point of view, this program aims to reduce the costs related to the management of waste borne by restaurateurs.
The Kirène Group was able to provide restaurateurs with:
This program will also offer environmental debates in restaurants to raise awareness of sustainable development.
As a committed player, the Kirène Group is proud of this support, which will contribute to the preservation of the environment in Senegal.

On Saturday September 21, we were alongside Ecolibri on the occasion of the big Set Setal organized at the Place du Souvenir Africain as part of the World Clean up Day 2019 !
The Kirène Group is proud to have been able to take part in this initiative aimed at cleaning up part of the West Corniche. Many people of good will came to join us throughout the day to manage, in a friendly atmosphere, to remove several hundred kilos of waste from the coast.
A special mention to our partner Recuplast, who did not hesitate to mobilize to lend a hand during this cleaning day.
