Givaudan secures seventh consecutive CDP A for climate action

Underscoring progress towards net-zero ambition

Givaudan’s continued leadership on climate action has been reaffirmed with the award of its seventh consecutive CDP A score for climate action. This latest recognition reinforces the Company’s progress toward its ambition to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by 2045, as well as highlighting the impact of its ongoing sustainability journey.

In addition to its A score for climate, Givaudan achieved an A minus for water stewardship and a B for its CDP Forests disclosure, reflecting ongoing progress in managing water resources and advancing sustainable sourcing practices to address deforestation.

“We are extremely proud of this seventh consecutive CDP A rating, which underlines our commitment to climate action. This, together with the recognition of our progress on water and forests, exemplifies how sustainability is embedded into our 2030 strategy and its central ambition of sustainable growth with customers. I would like to thank our colleagues, customers, suppliers, and partners whose collaboration continues to drive impact. While we celebrate this success, we also remain focused on the challenges ahead as we work together to do more every day.”

Gilles Andrier, Chief Executive Officer

CDP’s global disclosure framework is recognised as the leading benchmark for corporate environmental transparency. Its scoring provides essential insight into how organisations are advancing towards global goals for a 1.5°C climate future, water security, and a deforestation-free world – key pillars of Givaudan’s sustainability agenda.

Givaudan’s A rating for climate action places it among a select group of companies acknowledged for outstanding environmental performance. In January 2025, Givaudan announced the validation of its net-zero targets by the Science Based Targets initiative, and in June 2025, the Company was named once again on the CDP Supplier Engagement Leaderboard for its action in delivering climate action through its supply chain.
