Taking action to preserve biodiversity

Since 2014, we have actively been taking steps to preserve biodiversity. We develop spaces in which we cultivate local plants that attract and provide favorable habitats for bees (including planting meadows as well as installing insect hotels and hives), and encourage our people to take part in workshops to raise awareness about the importance of preserving biodiversity. Our efforts are carried out in partnership with an independent naturalist and local stakeholders.
