A green company
Every product bearing the ENO brand is designed and manufactured according to environmentally friendly principles. Our products are 100% controlled in our factory in Niort, France, and fully comply with current CE and ETL regulations. Our products are eco-designed, durable, and repairable.
Quality and Durability at the Heart of Our Products
Our cooking appliances undergo rigorous quality control : 100% of products are checked in our Niort factory in France, ensuring full compliance with current CE and ETL regulations.
We design our products for longevity, thanks to material choices and manufacturing methods focused on durability :
- High-performance materials : We select marine-grade stainless steels, known for their exceptional resistance to corrosion and salinity. These steels are salt spray tested for 500 hours, guaranteeing their robustness in extreme marine environments.
- Designed to last and be repaired : our appliances are fully disassemblable, which greatly facilitates repair. Furthermore, we commit to making certain spare parts available for 20 years and more.
- Rigorous tests and controls : normative tests are conducted in the laboratory, and 100% controls are performed on the production line (power, leaks, safety) to guarantee the reliability of each product.
A strong commitment to eco-design and recycling
At ENO, eco-responsibility guides every decision, from design to the end-of-life of our products :
- Recycled and recyclable materials : the cast iron, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, or copper that make up our products are 100% recyclable, and often made from already recycled materials. We incorporate a significant proportion of recycled material, especially for steel/stainless steel (17.7%).
- Eco-responsible packaging : our packaging and catalogs are manufactured and printed in France, using 70% recycled cardboard, and we have eliminated all plastics from our packaging.
- Optimized waste management : we systematically sort metal, plastic, and cardboard waste at each workstation. Powders in painting and enameling booths are automatically recycled.
Heading for Zero Carbon and Energy Efficiency
Our approach to achieving "zero carbon" translates into concrete actions:
- Technological investments : we use a fleet of modern, energy-efficient machines.
- Clean application techniques : for enameling and painting, we favor techniques without solvents, without water, and in a closed circuit.
- Energy recovery : heat from certain ovens is recovered to heat workshops through cogeneration.
- Future Factory 4.0 : digitalization and robotization allow us to reduce work strain, achieve "zero paper," and optimize our production flows.
- Controlled consumption : we have reduced our water consumption by 23% and gas consumption by 40% in the enameling process. Furthermore, all water is systematically treated in our purification plant (60 control points before discharge).
- High-performance burners : each appliance is equipped with the burner best suited to its size, offering a 25% reduction in energy consumption compared to similar products on the market.
Proud to Produce in France Since 1909
Being the first French manufacturer to obtain the Origine France Garantie label since 2011 attests to our long-standing industrial commitment. This certification authenticates the French origin of our products and reinforces our desire to favor the local ecosystem. We systematically choose local suppliers and subcontractors who share our eco-responsible approach, thus ensuring increased transparency and reduced environmental impact.
At ENO, quality, durability, and respect for the environment are not empty words, but the pillars of our French manufacturing.
