Immersed in a world where the environmental impact of each of our actions is increasingly under scrutiny, is eco-design or awareness of the environmental impact of a product in the world of electronics real or just an illusion?

For the Electronics activity of LACROIX, it is more than just a fad, it is a genuine desire.

We want to support our customers the best we can with their choices so that they are fully aware of the options available for designing and manufacturing their products “better” or in a more eco-friendly way.

Strategic Marketing Director

As the shortage of raw materials in general, and of components in particular, has not spared the global electronics industry, there is an urgent need for all players across the entire electronics sector to mobilise.

Suppliers, EMS providers and customers, by acting together we can make our industry more environmentally sound. To succeed in a project, you must therefore factor in the environmental impact of the product as a criterion when striving for the crucial “Quality, Cost and Time” triptych.
