IFB Refractories has been a contributor to high-temperature energy efficiency since 1919. As a French family-owned company and a reliable, committed partner, we maintain our eco-responsible expertise and processes to design and manufacture high-performance, insulating refractory materials that are both natural and sustainable.
We are committed to implementing the best available economically acceptable techniques at every opportunity. The involvement and awareness of all site employees and partnership with our relevant stakeholders are major pillars for the implementation and success of this environmental policy.
IFB Refractories’ Sustainability Statement is guided by the principle of double materiality, considering both the company’s environmental and social footprint (“inside-out”) and the financial impact of sustainability factors (“outside-in”). In line with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), which set common requirements for sustainability reporting across Europe, we conducted a thorough materiality assessment across our value chain. Combining data analysis, stakeholder input, and strategic priorities, we identified the most significant sustainability topics, forming the basis of our reporting and supporting transparency, accountability, and long-term value creation
As part of its CSR strategy and in line with the objectives of the Green Deal for Europe, IFB REFRACTORIES has conducted a Double Materiality Analysis of its activities an defined its aligned ESG action plan on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)."
