The Essential 2020

The "Aluminum Loop": a world first serving a simple, practical and useful gesture

Tefal, a brand of the Groupe SEB, is partnering with La Poste to increase the capacity of its unique collection and recycling network for end-of-life kitchen utensils, from all brands. A pioneering initiative that transforms a used pan into a new pan, completing the production chain in a 100% circular, local and industrial logic.

Tefal has already recycled more than 2 million pans since 2012. Thanks to this nationwide partnership with La Poste, the objective is now to collect 20 million pans by 2027.

Groupe SEB has today successfully issued a €500 million bond, with a 5-year maturity. The bonds, carrying an annual coupon of 3.625%, will mature on 24 June 2030.

In its ongoing efforts to revamp logistics, Groupe SEB is bolstering its presence in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté by commissioning a state-of-the-art platform in Til-Châtel. This site is part of a global logistics investment plan of more than 110 million euros, initiated with the opening of the Bully-les-Mines (62) giga-platform in 2023.

With this new platform, Groupe SEB affirms its choice of efficient logistics combined with environmental excellence, connected to its roots and looking to the future.
