Deceuninck Named Amongst World’s Greenest Companies

Deceuninck has been ranked among Newsweek’s 2025 World’s Greenest Companies – an international accolade recognising the top 750 publicly listed companies across 26 countries for excellence in environmental sustainability.

Based on independent research conducted by GIST Impact and Plant-A Insights Group, the ranking evaluated over 8,000 companies – all of whom had to have publicly available sustainability disclosures and align with the EU’s highest environmental standards – against stringent criteria.

Companies were assessed across four key categories: Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions, water usage, waste generation, and sustainability data disclosure and commitments.

“This is a huge achievement and a powerful endorsement of the work that both we in the UK, and our European Deceuninck counterparts, have done to reduce our environmental impact,” said Darren Woodcock, General Manager at Deceuninck UK. “We’re delivering measurable reductions in carbon emissions, using clean energy, and supporting our customers with practical tools to help them become more sustainable too.”

Deceuninck’s inclusion builds on recent sustainability milestones in the UK, including a 21% reduction in CO₂ emissions and a 60% reduction target by 2030 under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Additionally, the company’s Calne site now operates 2,200 solar panels, generating nearly 900,000 kWh of renewable energy annually.

It has also achieved RecyClass certification for recycled PVC traceability and processes and renewed its VinylPlus® Product Label for sustainable manufacturing across the UK and Europe.

“These achievements show that sustainability isn’t just a goal – it’s embedded in every part of our business,” added Darren. “Recognition like this strengthens our commitment to lead by example and support a more circular, low-carbon future for our industry.”
