Wherever possible, the Derichebourg Group prefers to purchase the land on which it operates its Environmental Services provision. The Group owns, via Derichebourg Immobilier and its subsidiaries and via Derichebourg España, over 465 hectares of land used by the EnvironmentalServices business. In view of its long-standingownership of certain land, there may be unrealized capital gains between their value and their historical cost. During the transition to IFRS standards, the market value of land at January 1, 2004 was consideredto be the cost in certain cases. A variance (net of deferred taxes) of €41 million was recognized in shareholders’ equity and in property, plant and equipment.

One of the aims is to succeed in recoveringall or part of the shreddingresidues either in the formof materialsor energy. The objectiveis to reduce the volumessent to landfill by 20%by 2022 (for equal volume treatedby shredders).

Derichebourg Environnement now produces 31,000 tons per year of alternativefuels for cementplants.
