CDP grades Tereos at leadership level on climate action

Tereos has been recognized for its action on climate change with an A- grade by CDP (formerly “Carbon Disclosure Project”).

CDP is a non-profit organization that measures the impact of actions taken by companies globally to fight climate change. Scores are assigned annually, ranging from A to D-, to the participants, assessing and reflecting their actions on climate change, water supply and the fight against deforestation. Tereos chose since 2012 to have its French sugar activities assessed by CDP on climate change.

For 2019, Tereos Sucre France has improved from grade C to A- on the climate change component of CDP, placing itself among the 18% of the best performing companies in its sector. For comparison, the average rating given to companies by the CDP is C. It is also the average rating given to companies in the agrifood sector.

Vincent Pobelle, Director of Transformation at Tereos, in charge of CSR: “This progression demonstrates the awareness of sustainability issues by Tereos and the seriousness with which we are working on our transformation roadmap. This is a great encouragement for all the teams involved in the Group’s energy transition.”

The CDP’s environmental rating is widely recognized as the benchmark for environmental transparency in companies engaged in the fight against global warming.
