Bekaert recognized with CDP’s ‘A’ Score for Environmental Leadership
Bekaert has been granted an ‘A’ score for Climate Change in CDP’s 2025 disclosure cycle. This top rating places Bekaert on CDP’s respected annual ‘A’ list, among a select group of high-performing companies worldwide demonstrating comprehensive disclosure, mature environmental governance, and meaningful progress towards environmental resilience.
CDP’s scoring draws on a rigorous and independent methodology, aligned with the TCFD framework. It evaluates companies’ depth of reporting, understanding of environmental risks, and evidence of best practice - including ambitious target-setting and verified action.
The achievement underscores Bekaert's commitment to creating value through sustainability and recognises its leadership in environmental transparency and action.

This recognition validates our strategic sustainability initiatives and positions us as a trusted partner for customers, investors and communities committed to a low-carbon future”.
Sherry Madera, CEO of CDP, said: “Congratulations to all companies on CDP’s A List. Businesses earning an ‘A’ score are proving that environmental ambition and commercial strength go hand in hand. High quality data gives leaders the confidence to make earth-positive decisions that secure long-term competitiveness, attract capital and safeguard natural systems. These organisations show what is possible when transparency becomes the foundation for action.”
