Sustainable development

Armutan is committed to limiting its environmental impact and optimizing its social commitment. We measured our greenhouse gas emissions for the year 2023 using the Bilan Carbone® methodology, supported by our partner ECOFINDER:

• Our carbon footprint is 66%* lower than that of comparable players in the cultural sector
• Our biodiversity impact score is 73/100** (100 being the best score)
• We optimize artists’ travel with 70% carpooling (current maximum capacity)
• We pay particular attention to the working environment of our artists (National Fund for Social Activities, reception and working conditions, distribution of value, etc.)
• 97% of our sets and costumes are made from second-hand items (antique shops, flea markets, etc.) and/or made by craftsmen (blacksmiths, luthiers, etc.)
• We also limit the use of plastic as much as possible: around 7% plastic on all sets, costumes and accessories used during shows
