Constellium Releases 2023 Sustainability Report
March 20 2024 - 7:00AM
Constellium SE (NYSE: CSTM) today announced the release of its 2023
Sustainability Report. This report highlights Constellium's
steadfast dedication to shaping a sustainable and circular future,
showcasing the company's initiatives in various areas of
sustainability.
“Constellium has continued to make strides in
its sustainability journey, despite a challenging environment and
the continued impact of the energy crisis in Europe”, said
Jean-Marc Germain, CEO of Constellium. “Our 2023 safety results
remain among the best in any industry, and we are making good
progress on our diversity and inclusion target to increase the
representation of women in our Company. While our greenhouse gas
emissions intensity performance in 2023 was behind our
expectations, we remain on track to achieve our targets by 2030
with many initiatives underway to improve energy efficiency,
decarbonize our operations, and develop sustainable, light, and
recyclable products. We use more and more recycled metal, which
also contributes to our decarbonization efforts.”
Constellium’s commitment to sustainability has
consistently received recognition from third-party organizations,
including a Platinum rating from Ecovadis, placing us in the top 1%
of 100,000 companies assessed worldwide, an AA rating from MSCI,
and a B rating from the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) for Climate
Change.
The report details Constellium’s sustainability
performance in 2023, including:
- Safety: We
delivered best-in-class safety performance in 2023, with a
recordable case rate of 1.95 per million hours worked vs. a target
of 1.5 in 2025, a slight increase vs. our 2022 results of 1.85.
Seven of our sites reached milestones of more than 1 million hours
worked without a recordable case.
- Gender
diversity: We continued to make good progress towards
our 2025 target to increase the percentage of women in professional
and management roles to 25%, with 24% of our professional and
management roles held by women in 2023. This compares to 22% in
2022, and a baseline of 21% in 2021. Constellium’s commitment to
promote a diverse and inclusive work environment was recognized by
its inclusion in Forbes World's Top Companies for Women list in
2023.
-
Recycling: In 2023, 42% of our aluminium
input came from recycled sources vs. 41% in 2022. As we continue to
increase our recycling capacity, including a new recycling center
in our facility in Neuf-Brisach, France which we expect to start
operating in the second half of 2024, we are on track to achieve
our target of 50% recycled input by 2030.
- Climate
change: In 2023, our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
intensity increased despite an improvement in energy efficiency.
This increase is mostly due to changes in electricity grid mixes
and the increased footprint of imported primary metal purchased by
our European operations, which are both a consequence of the
ongoing metal and energy crises. Our GHG emissions intensity
remains among the best in the industry, and we remain confident we
can reach our 30% reduction targets in 2030. Despite this
challenging environment, we continue our actions and initiatives to
play our part in the fight against climate change, including
participating in industry-wide initiatives such as the First Movers
Coalition, and leveraging innovative technologies and the potential
use of clean hydrogen for the zero carbon casthouse of the
future.
- Community
engagement: Constellium is strengthening its support for
communities through the ConstelliumCARES Fund, launched in 2023.
This philanthropy fund aims to finance local, regional, and global
projects with up to €1 million every year, contributing to the
well-being and mutual development of our communities.
