en.Wedoany.com Reported - At the "Choose France" summit held on June 1, 2026, U.S.-based Ecolab announced an investment of €100 million in two strategic industrial projects certified by the French government. The investment aims to fulfill the group's mission that "industrial performance and sustainability are inseparable" and to drive Europe's green reindustrialization.

The two projects are led by GravitHy and HoloSolis, respectively. GravitHy will build a plant with an annual capacity of 2 million tons of low-carbon iron in an industrial zone undergoing transformation in Fos-sur-Mer (Bouches-du-Rhône). The project uses a hydrogen-based direct reduction process, focusing on deep decarbonization and optimizing resource management in water- and energy-intensive industries.

HoloSolis will construct a photovoltaic cell and module factory at the Europôle de Sarreguemines-Hambach (Moselle), with a designed annual capacity of up to 10 million solar panels.

Thierry Troudet, General Manager of Ecolab France, stated that supporting these two strategic projects is a tangible contribution to France's industrial competitiveness while accelerating its adaptation to climate change. In addition to financial support, Ecolab brings a strategic vision for addressing environmental challenges at future industrial sites. The two projects are expected to boost economic development in the respective regions and create approximately 2,500 highly skilled jobs.
