Thierry le Hénaff - Chairman and CEO - Arkema

Arkema has set itself an ambitious target, based on an SBT (Science Based Target) approach, to reduce its scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and its scope 3 emissions by 46% by 2030 relative to 2019. Last July the Group thus raised its level of commitment from well below 2°C to 1.5°C, now also including scope 3 emissions, and is acting on a daily basis to limit its carbon footprint.

Finally, Arkema places inclusion and diversity at the heart of its success, capitalizing on the differences of profiles and experience to carry out the Group’s transformation, and all those elements were recognized in this 2022 ranking.
