Chairman’s Message
The aerospace world is undergoing a major transformation. Faced with environmental challenges, technological changes, and the growing expectations of society, our responsibility as an industrial player is greater than ever.
As a committed company, we are fully aware of our role in the transition toward more sustainable aviation, greater safety, and a more inclusive industry. It is in this spirit that we have defined our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) approach and integrated it into our growth and innovation strategy.

Our CSR Policy
Le Groupe Le Piston Français is committed to promoting open and constructive social dialogue in order to continuously improve and develop good working practices across all its sites.
It is committed to ensuring that the Group’s growth is carried out with respect for the rights of its own employees and their representatives within the Group, as well as those of its suppliers and subcontractors.
This commitment also reflects a strong desire to preserve the environment and promote responsible practices at every level of its activity.
To structure its CSR initiatives, the Group relies on the recommendations of IFBEC (International Forum on Business Ethical Conduct for Aerospace and Defence Industry) to define the themes that shape the company’s ethical framework.
Our Environmental Commitment
As a recognized industrial player in the aerospace sector, Le Piston Français is fully aware of its role in the transition toward more sustainable aviation.
Our environmental commitment is based on a pragmatic and structured approach, taking into account the expectations of our customers and contracting authorities, as well as regulatory requirements.
Our priority is to reduce the environmental impact of our production activities while ensuring the quality and performance of our high-precision mechanical parts.
Reduction of our carbon footprint
The LPF Group has established its carbon footprint assessment, which has been verified by an independent third party (CARBOMETRIX). The results show that 70% of emissions (excluding the use and end-of-life of products sold) come from our inputs (purchased goods and services).
As the Group has limited levers to act on this category, it has chosen to focus its efforts on reducing Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, notably through the energy optimization of workshops, the installation of energy-efficient equipment, and the gradual use of low-carbon energy sources.
An investment plan (CAPEX) has been established through to 2030, including a portion dedicated to the development of renewable energy starting in 2026. This plan has enabled the Group to define its decarbonization trajectory while taking into account the expected evolution of activity according to the business plan.
Decarbonization trajectory (Scopes 1 & 2)
A multi-year plan has been established, taking into account the development prospects of each site.
Photovoltaic equipment projects are defined in order to primarily reduce our carbon footprint on the sites with the greatest environmental impact.
These investments reflect the Group’s commitment to combining industrial performance with the energy transition, by aligning its infrastructure choices with its environmental commitments.
