5 - CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY Environmental matters

Waste Technicolor has a long-standing commitment to the principles of sound and environmentally responsible management of waste. Establishing the hierarchy of internal re-use, recycling and reclaiming followed by treatment and then landfill as the last option, Technicolor has developed and implemented programs to reduce waste generation, decrease the amount of hazardous waste, decrease waste sent to landfill, and increase recycling. Hazardous waste is defined at each site using guidance from local governing agencies, but in general it means waste chemicals, fuels, oils, solvents, batteries, fluorescent light bulbs, or other items that may

have been in contact with the hazardous material, for example, cleaning materials or empty containers. All these hazardous wastes are handled, stored, and disposed in compliance with local regulation and Group Policy. Total waste generated was 37,773 tons (about 3.5% of total waste was generated by non-industrial sites), a decrease of 2,569 metric tons, or 6.4% compared to 2016. The recycling rate was 74.5% decreasing slightly compared to 2016, mainly due to improved reporting from non-industrial sites for all wastes. When compared to total revenue, the average waste generation rate across the business was 8.66 M-Ton/m€ in 2017.

Air Emission Upon evaluation of its operations, Technicolor determined the most significant but limited air emission contaminant resulting from the Group’s operations (Scope 1) to be carbon dioxide associated with on-site combustion of fuels for heating, back-up power generation, or fire-suppression equipment. In 2017, a total of 7,087 metric tons of CO 2 were emitted from combustion sources within Technicolor’s industrial plants and larger non-industrial locations. This figure was calculated using the 1996 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Emission factors.

New questionnaires about waste were sent to non-industrial sites for the first time during 2013 in recognition of their increased significance in the Group EHS profile due to headcount and surface area. It helped these sites begin to focus on their waste streams, although work remains for 2018 to more completely measure and categorize this waste generation. For 2017, the overall reported waste was significant at about 3.5% of the Group total tonnage, with approximately 64 tons of hazardous waste from non-industrial locations (batteries, mercury-containing bulbs, e-waste). Some sites are already well into reducing the amount of office paper used through a groupwide paperless initiative. New for 2016 was the first recognition of organic composting as part of recycled waste, with about 14 tons reported during 2017.
