#WePromote a Sustainable World

Webuild’s Sustainability Strategy is embedded in the Group’s business model and strategy and is underpinned by two key pillars: its contribution to global challenges and its unceasing commitment to acting responsibly. 

Webuild's business is strongly oriented towards developing and building infrastructure that directly contributes to advancing the main Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs-oriented) and transition to a low-carbon economy.

Infrastructure projects can provide tangible solutions to improve people's quality of life in response to the major global megatrends posed by climate change, population growth, urbanization, and resource scarcity (such as water)..

Sustainable development principles permeate the entire Group, both at the core business level and in business practices, as they are an integral component of Webuild's business.

What we build is important to us, but even more important is how we build. Our infrastructure projects are designed to enhance the development and well-being of communities facing global challenges in a concrete way. We also act responsibly, contributing to the economic and social development of the territories where we work, protecting and enhancing people and the environment.

In fact, we daily invest in three sustainability “construction sites” with clear and declared ESG programmes and targets for the next three years, as defined in our ESG Plan.

Webuild ESG Plan

The ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) Plan of Webuild Group , consolidates the business strategy increasingly oriented towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals defined by the United Nations and embodies the Group’s commitment to respond to the growing needs of stakeholders and global challenges in an increasingly tangible way.

We identified a series of programmes to develop with the aim of contributing to accelerating the energy transition towards zero emissions target, also developing innovative solutions to improve the environmental sustainability of projects during their construction phases, and of works when they are used. We also aim to increasingly represent the industry's benchmark, in terms of health and safety, skills development, inclusion, and production efficiency, through an ever-increasing digitalization of all processes

On the basis of these objectives, in 2021 Webuild defined its first ESG Plan for the three-year period 2021-2023 focusing on 5P priority pillars (Planet, Prosperity, People, Partnership, Progress) and three sustainability “construction sites” - Green builders, Safe & inclusive builders, Innovative & smart builders - in which the Group continues to invest resources.

This Plan ended in 2023 with full satisfaction of the objectives, consolidating the Group’s sustainability credentials.

Webuild established a new ESG Plan in 2024 after meeting all set targets to continue its commitment with greater ambition.
