CDP honours commitment
CDP began compiling the ranking in 2003 prompting more and more companies to disclose their sustainability data. Only companies that meet strict climate protection criteria as well as forest and water management are awarded the top "Triple A" rating. The ranking for 2023 also includes the French cosmetics manufacturer L'Oréal, the Japanese chemicals and cosmetics company KAO Corporation and seven other companies that scored highly in all three areas. Around 400 have been named on its 2023 A List for disclosing actionable, high quality environmental data in at least one area. The awards will be presented on March 26,2024 in Paris.
