About Seche Environnement

Séché Environnement is a leading French industrial group focused on waste management and environmental services, with a particularly strong positioning in hazardous waste, complex waste streams, remediation, and environmental emergency response. Listed in Paris, the company serves industrial customers, local authorities, and public-sector stakeholders that need high-value-added solutions to safely collect, treat, recover, and dispose of waste in line with strict regulatory and environmental standards. In 2024, the group reported revenue of €1.1105 billion, with about 32% generated outside France, underscoring its growing international footprint. The company’s history is closely associated with its founder and long-standing chairman, Joël Séché, who built the business from a family base and progressively steered it toward environmental markets and waste recovery. Over several decades, the group expanded through a combination of organic growth, targeted acquisitions, and technological upgrading. This strategy enabled Séché Environnement to evolve from a regional operator into a national and then international environmental services platform, while retaining its identity as an independent family-controlled industrial group. Its core business lines include waste collection, treatment, recovery and final disposal, the regeneration and purification of selected industrial by-products, soil and site remediation services, industrial water treatment, and broader circular-economy solutions. The group also operates in environmental emergency response, a niche that benefits from its technical expertise and rapid deployment capabilities. In 2024, management highlighted the resilience of the business model, supported by long-duration contracts and by the growing contribution of services and circularity-related activities. Geographically, Séché Environnement has a dense industrial network in France, with roughly 50 industrial sites, and an international presence spanning 9 strategic countries and more than 120 locations worldwide. This footprint allows the company to serve multi-site industrial clients and deploy integrated solutions close to local markets. The group employs around 7,300 people, including approximately 3,000 in France. Recent notable points include multi-year contract renewals that strengthen visibility, an expanding international base, and a financial performance that remained resilient despite lower energy prices and some timing delays in service activities during the first half of 2024.
