Emmanuel Macron travels Wednesday to the Bas-Rhin for a trip on the theme of reindustrialization. The head of state is expected in the small Alsatian town of Muttersholtz.

He will visit the company Mathis, specializing in wood construction and intervening on several sites for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. The timber industry, a "strategic sector" according to the presidency, is particularly involved in the decarbonisation of the building sector. The inter-union has already called in a statement for a rally at noon in Mutterholtz, asking the demonstrators to bring pots or pans or lids.
