Since 2002, he has worked for Saint-Gobain, mostly within the Construction Product Sector in Brazil between 2002 and 2005, in China between 2005 and 2012, and in France since then. In Asia, after having been in charge of the development of the pipelines activity for China, he took over the responsibility of General Delegate for Asia-Pacific for the Saint-Gobain Group as well as Regional Managing Director for the Construction Product Sector for the same region.
Between 2012 and 2016, Mr Normant was President of the insulation activity of Saint-Gobain. In May 2016 he was appointed as Vice President for Sustainable Development for the Saint-Gobain Group.
