Hesion: the first recipient of the PEP’S label

On Wednesday 30 October 2020, the French government launched its very first label for products and services made in prisons ( PePs ). Hesion was awarded the PePs label at the project’s inauguration by Minister of Justice Eric Dupond-Moretti and Minister Delegate for Integration Brigitte Klinkert.

Following a CSR initiative in October 2019, Hesion began producing its gas detection control panels at Poissy Prison. This shared project gives the company a meaningful way to contribute actively to social reintegration. It also gives purpose to prisoners seeking structure and professional experience to prepare for their release with greater confidence.
