N.B.

W environmental reporting is based on a special calendar always consisting of the fourth quarter of year Y-1 and of the first three quarters of year Y; W a total of 24 new sites (related to Legrand’s acquisitions) were ISO 14001 certified between 2011 and 2018, including Fairfield in the United States, Caxias do Sul in Brazil, Wuxi, Huizhou and Shanghai in China, Preston in Australia, Nashik, ADLEC, the Numeric sites and Haridwar in India, the Megapower site in Malaysia, and the Novigorod site in Russia;

W acidifying agents nitrogen oxides (NO x

) and sulfur oxides (SO x ):

Legrand uses several boilers at its facilities, primarily for heating purposes and occasionally for industrial processes. Gas is gradually becoming the only fossil fuel used, since coal has been completely abandoned and the share of fuel oil has fallen below 2%. Consequently, the Group’s SO x emissions are negligible and NO x emissions strictly limited by local regulations.
