Bureau Veritas Earns Prestigious CDP ‘A List’ Recognition for Climate Leadership

Commitment to Sustainability Underscored by Industry-Leading ESG Performance

In a milestone achievement, Bureau Veritas has secured a coveted spot on the 2024 CDP “A List,” recognizing its exceptional efforts in combating climate change. As one of the top-tier performers globally, Bureau Veritas stands among the elite few corporations demonstrating unparalleled commitment to environmental responsibility and sustainability. This recognition, awarded in a year where over 24,800 corporations—representing more than two-thirds of global market capitalization—were assessed, cements the company’s leadership in sustainable business practices.

A Testament to Sustainable Excellence

Bureau Veritas’ inclusion in the CDP “A List” is not just an accolade—it is an affirmation of its steadfast dedication to climate action and corporate responsibility. Hinda Gharbi, CEO of Bureau Veritas, emphasized the significance of this recognition, stating:

With our LEAP | 28 strategy, sustainability is embedded at the core of our operations. This CDP recognition reflects our commitment to transparency and impactful actions in reducing our environmental footprint, while actively engaging our stakeholders in a collective journey towards decarbonization.”
