Borregaard earned a place on global environmental impact non-profit CDP’s “A-List” for climate change, based on the company’s climate reporting in 2019.

Borregaard is one of 8,400 companies who reported to CDP last year. Only 179 made the climate change “A-List.”

Borregaard was recognized for its actions to cut emissions, mitigate climate risks and develop the low-carbon economy, based on the data submitted by the company through CDP’s 2019 climate change questionnaire.

A detailed and independent methodology is used by CDP to assess these companies, allocating a score of A to D- based on the comprehensiveness of disclosure, awareness and management of environmental risks and demonstration of best practices associated with environmental leadership, such as setting ambitious and meaningful targets. Those that don’t disclose or provide insufficient information are marked with an F.

Borregaard offers green products with good climate and environmental properties that replace oil-based products. This is Borregaard’s second year on CDP’s “A-List.”

“EHS is a top priority throughout the Borregaard Group, and significant sums are invested in this area. At the same time, profitability is a prerequisite for sustainability. Both the way the Group is run and the products it produces are sustainable and meet global needs,” President and CEO Per A. Sørlie said.
