A SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT POLICY IN LINE WITH THE GROUP’S AMBITION AND VISION — KEY FEATURES OF THIS POLICY With the strategic framework Ambition 2030 rolled out over the course of 2019, Somfy is incorporating its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) ahead of its strategy in order to make it the foundation for the Group’s sustainable growth. The CSR topic features in each of the four strategic pillars of Ambition 2030. This thought process has helped to formally set out Somfy’s sustainable development policy, which is structured into four sections in line with each of the pillars of Ambition 2030: Improving living environments for all; 1. Consumer respect; 2. Reduction of environmental impact; 3. Employee commitment. 4.

Given that ethics in everyday behaviour and compliance with the law are prerequisites, they form a transversal axis of this sustainable development policy. The four sections of Somfy’s sustainable development policy respectively address four long-term objectives, which are themselves structured into three-level action plans: immediate compliance, three-year strategy and ambition by 2030. These four long-term objectives are: to make progress in achieving the vision, “Inspiring a better way – of living accessible to all”; to have loyal customers and consumers who trust the Group; – to make the environment an innovation driver for Somfy and its – value chain; to involve and motivate employees in line with the vision. – These objectives are consistent with the sustainable development policy pursued in 2019, the main programmes of which are developed as part of the management of the non-financial risks expanded upon below.
