Sustainability at Prysmian

Sustainability plays a central role at Prysmian. Company leadership promotes a business model that integrates economic, social, and environmental responsibility in every aspect and activity. As part of this commitment, Prysmian introduced two new strategic ambitions during 2021 to guide the company’s actions over the medium-long term: the Climate Change Ambition and the Social Ambition.

  • The Climate Change Ambition

    We seek to be a global leader in sustainability. Prysmian has announced our net-zero Climate Change Ambition to achieve net zero carbon emissions for all internal activities (Scope 1 & 2) by 2035, and by 2050 for our supply chain (Scope 3) emissions.

    The significant progress made in 2023 in almost all ESG areas confirms that we are on the right track.

  • The Social Ambition

    In addition to Prysmian’s Climate Ambition targets, the company launched Social Ambition targets which include commitments to diversity; equality and inclusion; digital inclusion; empowerment of communities and employee engagement and upskilling.
