Global 100 listing for Atlas Copco
World Economic Forum in Davos recognizes company’s achievements on annual sustainability list
ATLAS Copco have once again been recognized as one of the most sustainable companies in the world in the annual Global 100 list.
The list, presented last month at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, ranks companies that show they are increasing productivity while using less resources.
Atlas Copco, who have a global reach spanning 170 countries, were ranked as the 18th most sustainable company in the world.
Recognizing the need for customers to get the most from their plant and machinery, one of Atlas Copco’s sustainably initiatives is to boost customer energy efficiency by at least 20% between 2010 and 2020 by continuously making products more efficient.
‘Being socially and environmentally responsible is not only the right thing to do, but is how we develop and grow our business in a profitable way,’ said Ronnie Leten, president and CEO of Atlas Copco.
The Global 100 list is presented annually at the World Economic Forum. It is based on a selection of 4,000 developed and emerging-market companies, which are measured against key performance indicators such as revenues in relation to consumption of energy and water.
It is the seventh time that Atlas Copco have been included on the list.
