Our environmental Commitments
Social and Solidarity Economy.
We have chosen to work with social integration enterprises. Our primary motivation is to provide individuals facing social difficulties and people with disabilities with the opportunity to regain employability and societal recognition through our partnership with the Sheltered Workshop (EA) called Agorea.
Circular Economy
Our concept aims to promote a Circular Economy in the HBJO (Watchmaking, Jewelry, and Goldsmithing) market, with the goal of significantly reducing its impact on the environment. Many watchmaking and jewelry professionals already trust us.
Some figures Eco Tempo
Over 45 tonnes of watches and jewelry collected since the creation of Eco Tempo in 2010.
