How is the balance of the company's ecosystem preserved?
This stage required several months of work. Starting from our objectives, we built the global model to find the balance. This was done in conjunction with the project management and our Greenbelts, employees trained in continuous improvement. Our shareholders have testified great confidence, driven by our vision of the future to sustain and develop Matra Électronique's activity over several decades.

How does the HORIZON project innovate from an architectural point of view?
Innovation lies in the agility of our industrial site, achieved by designing open working areas and intelligent production facilities. The entire factory meets a homogeneous level of hygrometry and temperature. It's an architectural feat creating a collaborative and modular space with the added advantage of a maximum contribution of natural light! Should the need arise in the future, the plot has a land reserve that can be expanded in a short period of time.

We are taking advantage of our strong development potential to increase our productivity while maintaining our level of quality. The flexibility of the spaces will allow more reactivity to accompany our customers' projects. HORIZON corresponds to our identity as “solutions provider” in constant innovation.

What innovations does HORIZON bring on a social level?
The social and family culture of our company is strong. Above all, we did not want to break it, but rather to transfer it, while incorporating areas for improvement. We want to preserve our values. At our level, we continue to promote social innovation: right from the preliminary project, employees have had their say through the ambassadors. They have done a remarkable, concrete and well-argued job.
