ESG Rating

We are periodically subject to assessment by investors, by the main agencies specialized in ESG ratings (Environmental, Social, Governance), evaluation and certification bodies, customers and other stakeholders.

Ratings are attributed at the end of an ESG policy and performance analysis and assessment process. They constitute a valid tool for the Group's stakeholders, offering summary, independent and comparable information on our performance and the level achieved by Webuild in non-financial areas, related to governance, ethics and integrity, to social and environmental issues. 

Webuild is a benchmark of excellence on the Italian scene in the construction sector. Constantly improving ESG ratings place the Group among the main players in the sector at an international level.

Below are the main ESG ratings received by the Group.

EcoVadis

In 2024 Webuild has been awarded a “Gold” rating by EcoVadis, one of the world’s most respected sustainability rating systems.

EcoVadis has recognised the Group as one of the most sustainable companies on an international level thanks to its environmental, social, and governance practices, placing it among the most exemplary organisations worldwide. Achieving a score of 78/100, Webuild stands out as an ESG leader within the infrastructure sector, where the global average score is 60/100. 

CDP

In 2024 Webuild confirmed "A-"Rating,  already obtained in 2023 and 2022, in the annual CDP (formerly the Carbon Disclosure Project) ranking, placing in the "leadership" range, above the European and sector average (equal to "B"). As part of this program, Webuild has also received a “B” rating in the Water Security section, which was assessed for the first time in 2024. 

Webuild has been included in the CDP ranking since 2014, providing disclosure on the global platform that measures the environmental performance of more than 24,800 companies worldwide. The Climate Change program is based on a survey requested every year by more than 740 investors representing assets worth 136 trillion dollars. 

A result that confirms the effectiveness of Webuild’s sustainability strategy and confirms the Group’s leadership in mitigating climate change risks.

MSCI - Morgan Stanley Capital International

In the last updated 2024 report, Webuild has confirmed its AA rating (Assessment MSCI ESG Ratings), which was obtained with the rating action in 2023, therefore placing itself among the leading sustainability companies and consolidating the positive trend that started in 2018. 

Driving the 2023 rating upgrade, which consolidates a positive trend that started in 2018, were essentially the Group's performance in Health & Safety, governance and the Group's big focus on opportunities related to the use of clean technologies, with an increased commitment to the clean water and green buildings sectors.
