Pillar 2: Design differently, consume better

For over 30 years, we've been working with the best of nature while respecting the environment to preserve our planet. By joining forces, we have the power to shape a more sustainable and promising future.

1 By reducing our environmental footprint

An ambitious carbon trajectory

At Inula, we are actively committed to reducing our environmental footprint and promoting solidarity initiatives.

  • A site powered by renewable energy

Our main site operates on 100% renewable electricity, thus limiting our carbon impact.

  • Responsible waste management

In Ghislenghien, 93% of our waste is either recycled or recovered for energy, thus contributing to a more circular economy.

  • A solidarity commitment with Goods to Give

Because waste has no place in our worldview, we collaborate with Goods to Give , a solidarity platform that redistributes our unsold goods to associations helping people in precarious situations in Belgium. In 2024, this represents more than 135,000 products offered to those who need them most.

Every action counts for a more sustainable and united future.
