Imagine this : a constant rise in energy prices, the regulations stricter and a growing commitment to the goals of the Paris agreement. This is a lot ? What are the challenges you face on a daily basis if you are representing a company in the pharmaceutical industry or cosmetics.
In a world where the fight against global warming becomes (finally) a priority, you need to rethink your practices. Not simple ? And if we told you that there are ways to transform these challenges into opportunities, quickly, without having to invest much money ? Issues, legal obligations, and solutions to save energy and décarboner your business, and we made the point in this article.
The member companies of the Leem have identified in 2021, the six axes of engagement a priority. The small one-fifth of this list highlights the goal of a 50% reduction in Co2 emissions from the sector by 2030.
This goal of reducing Co2 emissions is aligned with those of the Paris Agreement : to stay below 1.5 degrees of warming relative to the pre-industrial era, on the Scope 1 (direct emissions of greenhouse gas emissions issued by the company : the heating, air conditioning, vehicles) and Scope 2 (indirect emissions related to the energy : it is the emissions created during the production of a product, we are also talking about carbon footprints, energy). This represents a reduction of 4.2 % per year over the emissions of the more direct (Scopes 1+2).
We told you, these goals are ambitious, but achievable (and most needed). But how to achieve this while remaining competitive ?

As a professional pharmaceutical or cosmetic, as you know better than us, the issue of the management of internal temperatures in buildings is crucial for your business. The stability of the environment is, indeed, essential to ensure the quality and efficacy of medicines and other products. Temperature variations can affect the composition, the retention and the effectiveness of drugs, as that of cosmetic products. management of internal temperatures of the buildings is therefore crucial, both for the phases of production, laboratory and storage.
These issues of logistics and comfort are directly linked to those of public health. The challenge, therefore, is threefold : economic, ecological and human health. But how to respond ?
The need to ensure the stability of the temperatures in the buildings of the tertiary sector, in particular in the pharmaceutical industry, is proving to be another major requirement : the sustainability and respect for the environment.
In fact, today, a large share of the industrial and tertiary buildings are cooled using air-conditioning systems. However, it is known today that the intensive use of these systems to maintain steady temperatures significantly increases the energy consumption of buildings, contributes to the massive release of greenhouse gas emissions and, consequently, to a carbon footprint high (and the energy consumption associated 
).
According to the data of the ADEME, France, the use of air-conditioning systems is equivalent to 5 % of the CO2 equivalent emissions of the sector building, 12 % at the global level. Is it necessary to develop this information ? No, we are in agreement.
In a context where the reduction of the environmental impact becomes a priority, and the ecological transition of an emergency, the cooling of buildings by means of air-conditioning systems, is no longer viable.
Then, how to solve this equation apparently contradictory ? The solution lies in the adoption of technology and innovative practices that allow you to regulate the temperature of a passive and respectful of the environment.
👉 The cool roofing forms part of these solutions and in addition to the many benefits. You are explains it all.
In adopting coatings reflective such as our cool roofing, it is possible to significantly reduce the temperature inside the buildings (up to 8°C). Our technology allows us to reflect much of the solar radiation before it reaches the inside, and thus reduces the thermal load and the need for air conditioning.
The result ? The limitation of the overheating of buildings and a more stable and more eco-friendly indoor temperatures ideal for storage of pharmaceutical products and cosmetics.
To adopt the solutions Cool Roof, it’s making the choice ofa solution that combines energy efficiency and environmental protection. By reducing the dependence on air-conditioning systems, your business can not only achieveimportant energy savings, but also contribute significantly to the reduction of its carbon footprint.
It is an approach that is in perfect harmony with the objectives of sustainable development and the standards becoming more stringent in France and in Europe.
You’ve heard ” work “, you thought ” cost “. Don’t worry, the application of our solution coatings for passive cooling does not require major works and does not, therefore, a significant expense. The application of our coatings reflective does not stop the activity.
Our solutions, CoolRoof, CoolWall and CoolGlass, apply directly on the roofs, walls, and skydomes. They adapt to the bituminous membranes with sequins, the tray lacquered steel, the concrete, the Cement, as well as other metal brackets.
The cost-effectiveness of our solutions associated with the broad technical feasibility has already attracted many companies in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries.
This is for example the case of Mr. Klein, Head of Technical Operations in the pharmaceutical sector in the Île-de-France, which had adopted our solution CoolRoof for his company :
in the Face of the requirements of the decree on the service sector and the objectives set by the Paris agreements to reduce significantly our energy footprint, our pharmaceutical company found itself in the obligation to find innovative solutions to reduce our energy consumption, in particular the one related to the air conditioning.
The structural constraint of our buildings do not allow us to opt for vegetated roofs, we have, after a search for an alternative solution, makes use of Cool Roof for their solution of cool roofing.
Installed in August 2023, this technology has quickly demonstrated its effectiveness, with a noticeable drop in the internal temperature of our premises during the hot days and felt up in October. This improvement in thermal comfort without the need of intensive air-conditioning omen energy savings are significant, we will evaluate precisely within a year.
This strategic choice is fully in line with our approach to environmental responsibility, and we are pleased with the first results obtained thanks to the expertise of Cool Roof France.
It seems that good news never come alone, then, here is the second good news of this article. By opting for our solution of cool roofing, you can reduce your carbon footprint while improving the comfort of your employees and the quality of their work environment.
An indoor climate more stable and more enjoyable and also leads to a better productivity and greater satisfaction of the teams, the key factors for the long-term success. What else ?
We may still be able to detail our solutions, but we are convinced that those who talk about it the better are our customers. To them the word :
Mr. Bertrand, Energy Manager in thecosmetics industry, Centre-Val de Loire :
The application of the coating CoolRoof has resulted in the reduction of the temperature inside of our building is dedicated to the cosmetology, accompanied by a significant reduction of our energy consumption. The observed results are in line with expectations, with a professional service, much appreciated. “
F. Bouvier, Head of CSR in thepharmaceutical industry, Normandy
The integration of the solution of cool roofing Cool Roof in our pharmaceutical infrastructure has led to a measurable improvement in energy efficiency and the thermal stability required for our operations. This initiative supports our goals of sustainability and optimization of operational costs.
