Social Commitment

Contribute to the well-being of our community

At Vitrerie de la Vallée, it is important for us to contribute to the well-being of our community and the people in it. We are a well-established company that takes pride in being involved in our community. We enjoy contributing to local activities and organizations and encouraging local talent. We choose one or two causes that are important to us each year, support them financially, and invite our staff to contribute.

The two causes that the glass company has chosen to support this year are:

In addition to supporting local community organizations, the company has established a subsidized daycare service to provide childcare for the young children of our employees and those working at the Gatineau Aeropark. Since May 2023, the educational daycare Les Amis de la Vallée has been welcoming 80 children in a brand-new facility.

Sustainability

We also believe in sustainability to ensure a better environment for future generations. Vitrerie de la Vallée is an environmentally conscious citizen contributing to a healthy future. Innovation is at the heart of our concerns for the coming years.

The construction of our future building includes superior insulating glass and sustainable materials, reflecting our concern for the environment.

We use several electric vehicles and plan to convert the entire fleet within the next few years. We will be digitizing all of our records and maximizing the use of electronic tools on the job sites and in the shop. Finally, we are analyzing options for recycling glass, although this is a less common technology in Canada.
