CDP awards CAREL an “A-” score, improving on the previous rating

Growing recognition also in Water Security and alignment with international sustainability standards

CDP, the global non-profit organisation that monitors, among other things, corporate performance in the fight against climate change, has published its latest score for CAREL, awarding the Group an “A-” rating. This marks a further improvement compared to the previous year and places CAREL in the “Leadership” band, alongside the companies most committed to tackling climate change.

Performance in the area of Water Security was also positive: in this category, CDP awarded CAREL a score of “B”, representing a significant improvement year on year.

“The excellent result achieved adds to the award of the Silver Medal by EcoVadis and the validation by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) of our short-term emissions reduction targets (near-term targets)” - commented Francesco Nalini, CEO of the CAREL Group, and Carlotta Rossi Luciani, Board Member with ESG responsibilities. “The continuous improvement in the main ESG ratings confirms that sustainability is now fully embedded in the CAREL Group’s development strategy and represents a tangible driver of competitiveness, innovation and long-term value creation. This commitment involves the entire organisation and strengthens our role as a trusted partner for an industry that is increasingly efficient and responsible.”
