Metsä Board, part of Metsä Group, has been recognised for its leadership in corporate transparency and performance on climate change, forests, and water security by the global environmental non-profit CDP.

Based on data reported through CDP’s 2025 Climate Change, Forests, and Water Security questionnaires, Metsä Board is among an exceptionally select group of companies worldwide to achieve a Triple A rating – out of nearly 20,000 companies scored. In 2024, Metsä Board was one of only eight companies globally to receive this distinction.

“With a 56% reduction in fossil-based Scope 1 and 2 CO₂ emissions from 2018 to 2024, we are already below the 1.5°C Paris-aligned 2030 emissions level.* We are on track to achieve further emissions reductions this year. The high score in CDP assessments year after year confirms our systematic work across all three areas: climate, forests, and water,” says Esa Kaikkonen, CEO of Metsä Board.

2025 marks the fourth time Metsä Board has earned CDP’s prestigious Triple A rating. Over the years, the company has consistently demonstrated leadership in environmental transparency—appearing on CDP’s Climate A List and Water A List for the tenth time, and on the Forest A List for the fourth time. Metsä Board’s progress toward its 2030 climate and water targets is outlined in a detailed, interactive roadmap available on its website.
