Eco-responsibility

The Papillon agency, an eco-responsible approach

The Papillon agency has implemented an eco-responsible policy in order to reduce its environmental footprint. Reducing its environmental impact is an objective in its own right in its strategy. All aspects of the activity are concerned.

In practice

The eco-design of L'Agence Papillon's site: the choice of theNetalys web agency

L'Netalys web agency is sensitive to the environmental impact of the websites it develops. As such, it promotes good practices to minimize this impact. It always tries to find the best compromise between the client's functionality needs and the technologies used in development. The idea is simple: to reduce the environmental and economic impacts of software, by improving their design and implementation.

Expert in the optimization of the sites it develops, Netalys compresses files and media to reduce their size. The agency limits the number of queries by eliminating unnecessary files and functions.

Several caching systems are implemented on the site and on the hosting server side, in order to reduce the number of file uploads there as well.

The site of Butterfly Agency is hosted on a cloud server at Google. Indeed, since 2007, Google has become carbon neutral. In 2017, it is the first company of its size to match 100 % of its electricity consumption with renewable energies. Today, it is the largest purchaser of renewable energy in the world (See the report).
In 2016, during a test bench of several nails, Greenpeace distinguished Google with an A.

The Netalys web agency also used Content Delivery Networks (CDN), in order to offer cached versions of the site in the locations closest to the visitors, and to limit queries and loadings.
