One-time disposal concerning many years of accumulated e-waste as part of a site relocation. (1)

Within Technicolor, detailed waste generation and disposal data is gathered at each facility following the local reporting format and requirements, then reformatted and recorded according to standard categories defined at the corporate level using periodic online site questionnaires deployed via a specialized, web-based, software. Waste data are consolidated at the Group level and audited each year by third-party auditors during the process of validation of Group extra-financial data, prior to publication and in compliance with French law. Technicolor sites select only qualified suppliers of waste-related services, generally always licensed and permitted by government agency, and in addition all sites are advised to review each waste service provider’s capabilities, staff qualifications, and control systems, and these aspects are reviewed during periodic Internal Audits. In some cases, site environmental personnel may also travel to the treatment or disposal site to make additional observation and inspection as part of the initial qualification or periodic monitoring of waste-service providers. Technicolor sites have four distinct profiles characterized by their own input and output profiles: sites that manufacture DVDs and dispatch them to distribution • centers are using raw materials and packaging. Main raw materials are: clear polycarbonate, bonding resins and lacquers, inks, plastic films, cardboard, and pallets. Consequently, waste generated include plastics, hazardous waste, and packaging; packaging and distribution sites receive bulk DVD/media as inputs • and package and prepare this media for retail sale. These operations consume packaging materials, printed materials; plastics film, cardboard, and pallets, which are typically reflected in waste streams along with specialized mixed waste when inventory is destroyed due to a customer request;

assembly of Set-Top Box and gateways (one site in the Group) has • electronic components as inputs as well as packaging material and generates waste streams similar to those of DVD/media packaging and distribution sites, plus e-waste; non-industrial sites generate typical waste associated with office • buildings, plus additional e-waste streams in Connected Home sites due to testing and evaluation of electronic product; Technicolor Creative Studios sites with large data centers used for image processing generate periodic additional battery recycling due to the need for significant back-up power systems. Many non-industrial locations are tenants in multi-tenant properties where most waste is collected and/or managed by the landlord with only general information available, and thus some non-industrial waste impacts are estimated using available information at the local, regional, or country level; all locations consume materials and generate typical waste associated • with maintenance and repair of buildings and facilities such as grease and oil, light bulbs, solvent rags, paint, cleaning products, and pesticides. Downstream end-of-life waste not controlled by Technicolor will include packaging, DVDs, and electronics from Set-Top Box and gateways, with the last having the most impact due to e-waste characteristics. Technicolor engages in discussions with customers and suppliers to reduce packaging and to increase recyclability of packaging as well as improved recyclability of parts in electronics. Electronics receive focused attention through eco-design best practices, including design for manufacture, design for recyclability, reduction of hazardous content, and product life-cycle analysis, while increasingly sourcing components or materials of recycled origin or which include a percentage of recycled material. Connected Home end-of-life e-waste is generally managed through collective actions with other producers, depending on regulation.
