This Friday, April 28, we organized the opening of our photo exhibition at the media library of Valgelon-La-Rochette.
A moment rich in emotion in front of more than 55 participants: local elected officials, partners and associations.

This event is an achievement and a pride to present 150 years of history in the service of the cardboard and our territorial anchoring in photography.

A big thank you to Béatrice SANTAIS, president of the Communauté de communes Cœur de Savoie and Stéphane DUPARC, vice-president of the Communauté de communes Cœur de Savoie for their participation. Thanks also to David Ates, Mayor of Valgelon-La-Rochette, Jacky Donjon, Mayor of La Rochette and Jacky Gachet, Mayor of Étable for their presence and their speeches.

As a reminder, our 700 photos are on display until May 22, 2023, don’t wait any longer!

Today we are pleased to present our 150-year special film in its entirety.

Every day, more than 300 men and women write the history of our company.
Technicity, know-how, transmission, heritage, territorial anchoring, so many words that we wish to transmit through these different sequences…

Thank you to our employees for their participation and their testimonials!

We would like to thank once again Gaspard VINCENT  for the shooting and editing and Benjamin Gremen  from Kaptis for the images filmed by drone.

The video with English subtitles will be available soon! Keep connected !

From April 25 to May 22, 2023, find nearly 700 photographs exhibited at the media library of Valgelon-La-Rochette retracing 150 years of emblematic history of our cardboard factory and its territorial anchoring.

This photo exhibition is a real Savoyard cultural event not to be missed!

Thanks to the Valgelon-La-Rochette media library, especially to Christine Girard and her team, who without them, we would not have been able to exhibit 150 years of history in the service of cardboard 🙌

Finally, thanks to Jacky Donjon, deputy mayor of La Rochette

Celebrating 150 years! 🎉

💬 “From one century to another, the factory buildings, from the wood supply to the shipping of the cardboard reels, reflect this long journey through time. [The large chimney, emblematic of the Rochettois site, is the privileged witness of this economic lung of the Val Gelon.

A big thank you to Brigitte Mauraz of the Dauphiné Libéré for her article on our 150th anniversary, which also announces our new cultural event: a photo exhibition from 25 to 22 May at the La Rochette media library!

💬 “With 150,000 tonnes of cardboard produced per year, La Rochette Cartonboard has found its cruising speed. This does not prevent it from thinking about innovations, such as fat barrier packaging for frozen foods, for example. The ban on plastic in the food industry is an opportunity for our products.

Virginie TRIN from La Vie Nouvelle magazine came to meet Christophe Lloret Linares, Managing Director of La Rochette Cartonboard to discuss the competitive advantages and ambitious environmental projects of the site.

We’ve involved our employees by organising a contest to define the safety message that will be printed on our work outfits. This competition allows us to engage our work group in a positive and collaborative action.  The involvement and empowerment of everyone on a daily basis are the driving forces behind the continuous improvement of our safety culture.

26 employees from the support, maintenance and production sectors volunteered to propose a safety slogan with a total of 42 proposals!

After deliberation by the Health&Safety Comitee, the chosen slogan is “Safety before productivity”!

Congratulations to Audrey SUSZKA who has been awarded prizes on this theme by Christophe Lloret Linares: a first aid kit and a mug. All the participants have also been rewarded.

Thank you to our employees who, every day, write history in the service of cardboard.

Since 2021, La Rochette Cartonboard has been ISO 50 001 certified. This standard aims to implement an energy management system (EMS) to reduce our energy costs and have a positive impact on our carbon footprint. 🌍

Our factory is fully committed to this approach and self-produces part of the electricity it consumes thanks to its biomass boiler. The boiler is being upgraded to more efficient and less energy-consuming technologies (new turbine, new pumps and motors with variable speed drives, etc.).

Our teams seek to target projects aimed at improving energy performance. These projects include, for example, the optimisation of the compressed air plant to avoid leaks and to recover the thermal energy indirectly produced by the process (which is neither recovered nor used to preheat the boiler water), or the construction of a solar farm, for which an environmental impact study is in progress.
