Heidelberg Materials has been included in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index Europe (DJSI) for the first time.
The index recognises European companies that have achieved exceptional results in the S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment (S&P CSA 2024). The DJSI began in 1999 with the aim of pioneering sustainability benchmarks for businesses around the world. The index has grown to include global, regional, and country-specific benchmarks.
The assessment is considered one of the most respected ESG ratings available worldwide because it is based on comprehensive disclosures and assessment processes.
Heidelberg Materials scored 80/100, placing it in the top three percentile of the S&P CSA 2024. The company ranked highly in climate strategy, transparency and reporting, business ethics, and product stewardship.
“I am very pleased with this recognition and proud of what we achieved to date”, said Dr Katharina Beumelburg, chief sustainability and new technologies officer.
“Our ranking in the DJSI Europe demonstrates how seriously and consistently we are approaching our transformation to net zero addressing the full spectrum of environmental, social, and governance topics. This is a clear signal to our shareholders, who are closely following our transformation.”
