Florian Lahrouch

Florian Lahrouch currently serves as a Project Manager in standardization at AFNOR Group, where he plays a pivotal role in advancing environmental sustainability through the "Excellence Environnementale" normalization initiative. His leadership focuses on developing a comprehensive reference framework that seamlessly integrates the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), the emerging "industrie verte" legislation, and voluntary standards related to environmental management systems. This strategic alignment aims to provide French companies with a practical, operational tool to navigate the increasingly complex landscape of environmental compliance and sustainability reporting.

In his role, Florian oversees the French committees responsible for creating and refining standards for environmental testing methods, particularly those involving ecotoxicological, physical, and chemical analyses of solid matrices such as waste, soil, and bio-waste. His expertise extends to water matrices in ecotoxicological assessments, ensuring that testing protocols are robust and internationally harmonized. Florian’s background in environmental chemistry, scientific writing, and analytical techniques underpins his ability to manage complex projects that require a deep understanding of soil pollution, uranium migration, and radioactivity.

His skills in report writing, organization, and ESG principles enable him to coordinate multi-stakeholder collaborations effectively, fostering the development of standards that are both scientifically rigorous and practically applicable. Florian’s work not only supports the standardization of environmentally relevant testing methods but also contributes to the broader goal of promoting sustainable practices within industries, aligning regulatory compliance with environmental protection. His ongoing projects exemplify his commitment to leveraging scientific expertise and standardization to drive meaningful progress in environmental management and corporate responsibility.
