Billerud has been recognized as a global leader in sustainability by securing a spot on the prestigious A-list of the international organization CDP.
This ranking highlights the company’s commitment to environmental transparency and its efforts to drive sustainable practices.
CDP assessed nearly 25,000 companies worldwide in 2024, with Billerud earning a top position in the “Climate” category. The recognition underscores the company’s systematic approach to sustainability and its significant progress in reducing its carbon footprint.
"Billerud's ranking is both honorable and a testament to our systematic and long-standing sustainability work that is world-class in a global comparison. Production in our European operations is almost fossil-free. We are now continuing our journey to reduce fossil emissions in the American operations," said Ulrika Wedberg, EVP Sustainability & Public Affairs at Billerud.
In addition to its low-emission production, Billerud’s renewable paper and packaging materials contribute to a fossil-free society by offering sustainable alternatives to traditional materials. The company recently had its new climate targets approved by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi), reinforcing its commitment to a low-carbon future. As part of this strategy, Billerud aims to cut its Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 42% by 2030, using 2022 as the baseline.
CDP is a global voluntary organization that promotes environmental reporting and risk management to encourage corporate action toward sustainability. In 2024, nearly 25,000 organizations disclosed environmental data through CDP, making Billerud’s A-list ranking a significant achievement in the industry.
Billerud is a global leader in the production of high-quality paper and packaging materials. With a strong commitment to sustainability, quality, and customer value, Billerud serves customers in over 100 countries.
