Cementir Holding confirmed on CDP’s Climate Change A List for the second consecutive year

Cementir Holding N.V. confirms its position on CDP’s prestigious “A List for Climate Change” for the second consecutive year, recognizing the company’s strong strategies and actions to mitigate climate change and ensure corporate transparency. This achievement highlights the significant progress Cementir has made since its initial B rating in 2020.

The Group has also maintained its leadership in CDP Water Security with an A- score for the fourth year in a row.

Being part of CDP’s “A List” for the second consecutive year underscores Cementir’s steadfast commitment to climate action and transparency. We will continue to reduce our environmental impact and deliver on our net-zero goal”, commented Francesco Caltagirone jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

Cementir is committed to achieving net zero emissions by 2050, with ambitious reduction targets validated by the Science Based Target initiative and aligned with the 1.5°C scenario for the cement sector.

A key milestone of Cementir’s net zero journey has been the award of EUR 220 million contribution from the EU Innovation Fund for project ACCSION, one of the largest onshore Carbon Capture and Storage systems in Europe, enabling the Aalborg plant to avoid 1.5 million tons of CO2 emissions per year.

The Group’s sustainability roadmap includes several initiatives: reducing clinker content in cement, increasing the use of alternative fuels and raw materials, producing renewable energy and developing innovative, more sustainable products such as FUTURECEM® and D-Carb®.  

Furthermore, the Group has strengthened its commitment to responsible water management by endorsing the WASH Pledge and setting clear targets to reduce water consumption.

CDP’s scoring methodology assesses companies on a scale from D- to A measuring the comprehensiveness of disclosure, awareness and management of environmental risks and best practices associated with environmental leadership, such as setting ambitious and meaningful targets.
