CAREL publishes its 2025 ESG Highlights
CAREL presents its 2025 ESG Highlights, the document that describes the Group’s approach to sustainability and the main results achieved during the year, confirming the integration of ESG criteria into the company’s strategy and business model.
The ESG Highlights outline the “Driven by the Future” journey, based on innovation, environmental responsibility, people development and solid governance. In 2025, CAREL launched a second multi-year Sustainability Plan, strengthening its emissions reduction targets in line with the Paris Agreement and with the ambition to progressively reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissions through to 2050.
Among the most significant results, the Group reduced Scope 1 + 2 emissions by 34% compared to 2023, increased the share of renewable energy in total consumption to 58% and reached 1.2 GWh of self-produced electricity from photovoltaic panels. CAREL’s commitment also continues in eco-design, LCA studies and the development of highly energy-efficient solutions for the HVAC/R sector, alongside initiatives dedicated to inclusion, training, safety, local communities, a responsible supply chain, ethics and integrity.
Finally, CAREL confirms its commitment to gender equality: in 2025, the audit review of the Gender Equality Management System, certified in accordance with the Italian UNI/PdR 125:2022 reference practice, showed an improvement in the score, while training activities on diversity and gender equality increased significantly.
“For CAREL, sustainability is not a secondary issue, but the very foundation of our business model: a concrete, measurable and shared journey, made possible by the daily commitment of our people,” said Carlotta Rossi Luciani, Sustainability Executive Director at CAREL.
