Top grades for environmental transparency: Wilo makes the “A-List” of the Carbon Disclosure Project

Water technology group honoured with prestigious climate distinction

Dortmund. The Wilo Group has been recognised by the international non-profit organisation Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) for its transparency with regard to the climate. In the climate category, the water technology group secured a place on the CDP’s prestigious “A List”. This puts Wilo in the top 4 percent of the approximately 20,000 companies assessed by the organisation last year. This distinction is just one of many: in 2025, Wilo received the EcoVadis Platinum Medal for the fourth time in a row and the German Sustainability Award for the second time.

“Being placed on the CDP A List is an impressive confirmation of our strategic course, which is completely focused on sustainability”, says Oliver Hermes, President & Global CEO of the Wilo Group. For several years now, Wilo has prioritised its group-wide sustainability strategy, which forms the basis for all other functional strategies. “This rating both reflects our unwavering commitment to sustainability and climate actions as well as our tireless efforts to keep our key sustainability figures transparent,” Hermes continues.

The CDP’s A List is recognised worldwide as the gold standard for environmental transparency. The organisation’s methodology is based on an independent system that evaluates company data. The fact that Wilo joined the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) at an early stage proved to be an important factor for the rating, Hermes explains: “We have, among other things, committed to reducing our absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 50% by 2030 and by 90% by 2050 based on figures from 2020. And we are well on our way to achieving this!”
