| prysmian group | 2012 Sustainability Report
the type of products, the environmental performance
indicators have been aggregated into the major
production categories: power cables, accessories,
telecom cables and optical fibre, without considering
the further sub-divisions existing within each category
(business areas).
• No data has been collected for offices or the R&D
labs because of their low environmental impact, or
for certain production sites not yet fully equipped to
collect data: Haixun, Wuhan, Zhongyao (China); Pune,
Chiplun (India); Grombalia (Tunisia); Brøndby (1).
• Underground and submarine cable installation
activities, whose environmental aspects and methods
of operation are very different from those of the
operating units, require separate consideration.
Environmental data is not yet reported for these types
of activities, since set-up work and projects continue
in preparation for the future collection and reporting
of representative indicators using dedicated tools.

The environmental data for the production sites not included in
this analysis is not thought to be significant, with respect to the
mass of environmental data reported, considering the low number
of sites involved (about 7% of the total) and the limited extent of
production at those locations.
