Sustain 2026, organised by EcoVadisEcoVadisA platform for assessing corporate CSR performance. Its assessment notably covers four themes: environment, labour & human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement. It assigns a score and may award a medal depending on the result., is a key event for industrial companies facing new ESG requirements, supply chain traceability expectations and decarbonisationDecarbonisationThe progressive reduction of greenhouse gas emissions associated with an activity, product, process or value chain. imperatives.
Main themes will include:
- Non-financial reporting and European regulatory requirements
- Reduction of industrial emissions
- Circular economyCircular economyA model aimed at keeping the value of products, equipment, materials and resources in use for as long as possible through durability, maintenance, repair, reuse and recycling. and recycled materials
- Supplier responsibility
For the extrusion blow moulding sector, these challenges are structural. The growing integration of recycled plastics modifies material behaviour: variable viscosity, more complex thermal stability and tighter dimensional tolerances.
These developments require more demanding mould engineering. An unsuitable mould increases defects, raises scrap rates and negatively impacts energy performanceEnergy performanceA measurable result relating to the use and consumption of energy by a building, piece of equipment, process or organisation.. At Matissart, this transformation is part of a broader commitment to responsibility and performance. The company has been awarded the EcoVadis Gold Medal, recognising its strong performance in environmental management, ethics, responsible sourcing and governance.
At Matissart, we support this transformation through:
- Thermal circuit optimisation designed to absorb material variability
- The selection of robust materials capable of sustaining high production rates
- Design solutions promoting long-term dimensional stability
Sustain 2026 highlights a key reality: environmental performance also depends on technical optimisation of industrial tooling. In extrusion blow moulding, a high-performance mould reduces waste, improves yields and directly contributes to lowering the overall energy footprint.
