Billerud keeps leading position in sustainability index for 2023

Billerud – including Billerud North America – retains its position as one of the world’s most sustainable companies in its industry sector. This year’s results from the globally recognized Dow Jones Sustainability Indices show that Billerud continues to be one of the leading companies in the Containers & Packaging category.

The Dow Jones Sustainability Indices is based on the S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA), which is a comprehensive annual evaluation of corporate sustainability efforts and performance. The Dow Jones Sustainability World Index includes the top ten percent of more than 2500 publicly listed companies.

The CSA is based on an analysis of corporate governance, environmental performance, and social performance, divided into 23 categories. Billerud is among the top 10 percent in the industry in the 2023 S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment.

“I am very pleased and proud that Billerud kept its top position from last year. We have worked proactively with sustainability for many years, and we strive to constantly improve. Together with our north American operations we will continue to work with areas where we can improve even further. We want our customers to feel confident that we offer the most sustainable packaging solutions.”, says Ulrika Wedberg, EVP Sustainability & Public Affairs.
