Who are we?

As a company guided by values, we unite our activities under the banner of a vision: respect for the environment and the positive impact of our activities on society by offering PVC-free tarpaulins. On a day-to-day basis, our R&D teams and suppliers work hand-in-hand to develop together a range of innovative and exclusive products, meeting market expectations and the most demanding environmental standards. The entire MediaPure range for our customers is therefore PVC-free and based on vegetable materials. 

In collaboration with Winwin, the last entity of the MédiaGraphic group, we propose a comprehensive environmental and societal approach (CSR) to support partner companies in their ecological and solidarity transition. To meet your expectations, we offer Product Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) using ADEME to recycle waste from the event. 

Why support the Festival?

We support the Festival Photo La Gacilly, because it is above all a beautiful meeting with a team sharing values common to ours. In addition, the Festival allows the lighting of photographs in a unique natural space, offering the works a perfect symbiosis with nature.

What commitments put in place in our structure affirm our common values?

Like the Festival, the MediaGraphic Group has changed from Enterprises to Mission for all the companies of the group. In addition, we have created the WinWin structure which is responsible for the environmental and societal policy of the MediaGraphic Group, with an endowment fund, for which we are pleased to count in the college of experts, Mr.Auguste Coudray, President of the La Gacilly Photo Festival.
