Our belief
The world is facing the greatest challenge in its history: making a success of the energy transition and re-establishing the conditions for a lasting harmony between humankind and the Earth.
To make this transition a success, the world will need metals from responsible mines that respect people and their environment.
Our purpose
We want to become a reference
for the responsible transformation
of the Earth’s mineral resources
for ‘living well’ together.

Our purpose embodies our collective vision and ambition. It sets our course and structures our strategy. Above all, it expresses a state of mind that nurtures all our decisions and actions.

Chair and CEO
In order to render it truly binding, Eramet decided in May 2021 to enshrine its mission statement in the Group’s bylaws.
Because the question of the availability and quality of raw materials is a central issue in the ecological and energy transition, we are mobilizing.
Because we are convinced that environmental issues cannot be tackled without addressing societal challenges head-on, we are taking action.
Underpinning these values and our actions is our corporate purpose: To become a reference in the responsible transformation of the Earth’s mineral resources, for ‘living well’ together.
It reflects our ambition to be an effective, civic-minded, proactive and agent for change. It guides all our strategic decisions, and fuels our creativity and agility.
Contributing to the circular economy, controlling our energy consumption and emissions, strategically repositioning ourselves in the metals essential to the energy transition, sharing added value, preserving biodiversity… this corporate purpose is our collective ambition.
It serves as a compass for our vision of people, whether they be our employees, whose safety and development are our priorities, the communities in our areas of operation, to whom we are committed, or, more generally, our fellow citizens, for whom metals are essential in terms of personal and collective well-being.
This compass aligns us with the greatest challenges of the future: meeting the needs of current and future generations by supplying metals useful for the energy transition and economic development, guaranteeing responsible supply, and carefully managing the Earth’s resources.
We are Eramet. And we are resolutely committed to becoming a key player in the mining and metallurgy industry, and to creating the conditions for sustainable harmony between humankind and the planet.
