Ripagreen®: Sustainable Innovation for a Responsible Future

At Ripagreen®, we believe that a company should not be defined solely by the quality of its products, but also by its impact on the environment, society, and its broader ecosystem. As a brand of the SEFMAT Group, we are committed to a bold, practical, and forward-looking CSR approach.

A Progressive and Environmentally Respectful Approach

Ripagreen designs and manufactures sustainable solutions aligned with a responsible economy. We are committed to minimizing our environmental footprint at every stage of our equipment’s life cycle:

  • Designing durable, repairable, and upgradeable products built to last
  • Continuously innovating to combine industrial performance with energy efficiency
  • Products designed and assembled in France, near Bordeaux, by our in-house experts

Clean and Innovative Technology

Ripagreen equipment operates using hot air thermal weed control technology. This method destroys unwanted plants through a thermal shock that dries out their cells — without using harmful chemicals.
Unlike chemical herbicides that pollute soil, water, and air, our approach is eco-friendly, safe for users, and aligned with sustainable green space management.
It’s a concrete expression of our mission: to offer an effective, healthy, and responsible alternative to polluting solutions.

A Shared Responsibility

Ripagreen’s CSR commitments are part of a broader collective dynamic. The brand benefits from SEFMAT Group’s environmental initiatives:

  • Partnerships with recycling experts to recover all waste materials — from cardboard and plastics to toner cartridges and metals
  • Contribution to emissions reduction through active participation in Team for the Planet, an impact-driven organization
  • Support for reforestation via a partnership with Ecotree, through tree ownership and preservation to capture tomorrow’s CO₂

A Strong Human and Societal Commitment

At Ripagreen, social responsibility is at the heart of what we do:

  • Close collaboration with ESATs to promote inclusion and social employment
  • Support for local and charitable initiatives, from logistics donations and solidarity collections to fundraising sports events like Pink October
  • Continuous improvement of employee well-being through group-wide programs focused on cohesion, wellness, and solidarity

Our Vision

We design our innovations with a clear goal: to combine performance, efficiency, and environmental respect.
As part of the SEFMAT Group, we demonstrate every day that it is possible to align competitiveness, responsibility, and social commitment.
Ripagreen is where technology meets ethics — for a greener, more humane industry.
