A new initiative called “Family Green Day” was adopted by TITAN in Usje in 2009. Under the moto “Together for the Nature”, employees and their families, friends and neighbors gathered to plant trees in TITAN’s marl quarry. This activity aimed to encourage a joint effort for the environment and strengthen team spirit and voluntarism among TITAN employees and their families.

Some 270 people planted 1,000 trees, including acacia, juniper, white ash and pine trees.

On the green area close to the planting site, a party for employees’ children and grand-children was organized and at the end of the event an illustrated book dealing with the protection of the environment was distributed to all.
