Saint-Gobain is proud to be recognized once again by the non-profit organization CDP for its leadership and its actions in the fight against climate change, by being included in CDP’s prestigious “Climate A List”.

Only 2% of the companies assessed receive an “A” rating, an acknowledgment that highlights the Group’s strong emphasis on transparent environmental data reporting and the alignment of its strategy with the goals of the Paris Agreement. Through ambitious initiatives to reduce both its own carbon footprint and that of its customers, to adopt practices that foster the development of a circular economy, and to promote decent housing for all, Saint-Gobain is demonstrating its leadership in sustainable construction.

Claire Pedini, Senior Vice President, Human Resources and Corporate Social Responsibility, stated: “We are honored to be included on CDP’s Climate A List. This recognition rewards our continued commitment to embedding sustainability at the heart of our business strategy.

Maximizing our positive impact and minimizing our footprint is the approach that guides our daily actions. Thank you to all the Saint-Gobain teams who work every day, through our solutions, to decarbonize the construction sector, support its transition toward sustainable building, and reduce our environmental impact. Our inclusion on CDP’s Climate A List is a collective achievement.”

Over the past year, Saint-Gobain has continued to leverage its technological innovation and commercial expertise in support of its environmental and climate commitments, while offering renovation and new construction solutions that combine comfort and sustainability, as detailed in the Group’s 2024 climate notebook. By the end of 2024, the Group had reduced its carbon footprint by 34% in absolute terms compared to 2017.

CDP’s rating, based on an annual assessment of over 22,700 companies, is globally recognized as the benchmark for corporate environmental transparency. Companies are evaluated on criteria such as the comprehensiveness of disclosure, awareness and management of environmental risks, and the demonstration of best practices associated with environmental leadership.
