SOMFY // 2022 Annual Report

03 NON-FINANCIAL STATEMENT

Activity

Specific DNSH

The activity assesses the availability and, where possible, adopts techniques that support: – reuse and use of secondary raw materials and re-used components in products manufactured – design for high durability, recyclability, easy disassembly and adaptability of products manufactured – waste management that prioritises recycling – information on and traceability of substances of concern throughout the life cycle of the manufactured products

3.5 Manufacture of energy-efficiency equipment for buildings

Specific DNSH criteria are generally analysed across all the Group’s product lines: – first-grade recycled plastics are used in all product ranges. The volumes of recycled plastic and their grades are reported by the purchasing Departments; – the design of quality and durable products is the result of SOMFY’s quality policy. Numerous tests are carried out on products to adhere to regulatory requirements and to verify that products meet the additional performance criteria that the Group has set itself. The results of these tests make it possible to offer warranty periods of up to 7 years. The motors have an estimated life of 15 years and the control points 10 years; – production and non-production waste is monitored and processed by external organisations with a recovery rate increasing from 89% to 93% in 2022; end-of-life products are managed by the WEEE network, to which SOMFY contributes via Ecosystem. This organisation works to extend – the life of household electrical and electronic equipment by supporting repair and re-use. It also recycles them when they turn into waste, and recycles used electrical and electronic equipment, lamps and small fire extinguishers. According to Ecosystem, the recyclability rate of products in the professional WEEE sector (which include SOMFY products) is 80.3% with a recovery rate is 87.5%. Work is underway at Ecosystem level to provide moreaccurate figures by product category; – finally, SOMFY complies with European regulations on substances. Information is collected from suppliers through questionnaires. These results are then verified by an independent laboratory for more than 65% of products sold underthe Somfy brand.

Activity 7.5:

Activity

Substantial contribution

The activity consists in one of the following individual measures: – installation, maintenance and repair of zoned thermostats, smart thermostat systems and sensing equipment, including motion and day light control – installation, maintenance and repair of building automation and control systems, building energy management systems (BEMS), lighting control systems and energy management systems (EMS) – installation, maintenance and repair of façade and roofing elements with a solar shading or solar control function, including those that support the growing of vegetation

7.5 Installation, maintenance and repair of instruments and devices for measuring, regulation and controlling energy performance of buildings

Only the generic DNSH related to Objective 2 is relevant to this activity as there is no specific DNSH. Note:

The analysis of the substantial contribution is also carried out through analytical reporting of sales, derived from the financial statements without using distribution keys. OUTLOOK — SOMFY is committed to a continuous improvementprocess with regard to the alignment of its activities. From a methodological point of view, the improvement of the datacollection process is under review, including: – the integration of additional indicators into financialconsolidation tools; – systematic consideration of taxonomic criteria in investment decisions. In 2022 this criterion was applied, for example, to the construction of a new industrial site. The Group’s strategy is aligned with the Green Taxonomy approach. It promotes activities that have a positive impact on buildings. Work in progress will help reduce the carbon impactof products and SOMFY intends to work with the entire industryto continue in this direction.
