Pirelli was the only tyre manufacturer included in both indices, achieving a score of 86 points in the 2025 S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment.
The company’s result placed it ahead of sector averages for both auto components and automobile manufacturers, reflecting performance across environmental, social and governance (ESG) categories.
Pirelli sustainability indices ranking highlights environmental performance
The Pirelli sustainability indices ranking recognised the company’s performance in areas including water management, waste reduction, energy efficiency, biodiversity protection, and supply chain governance.
Pirelli also received high scores for occupational health and safety policies, human rights commitments, and ESG management practices across its operations and supplier network.
Environmental criteria are becoming increasingly significant within the automotive and manufacturing sectors as companies face growing regulatory and investor scrutiny around emissions, resource use, and supply chain resilience.
Sustainability benchmarks and industrial competitiveness
Sustainability indices such as the S&P Dow Jones Best-in-Class series are widely used to assess corporate ESG performance across industries. The annual assessment covers more than 12,000 companies globally across 62 sectors.
The Pirelli sustainability indices ranking reflects broader trends within manufacturing and mobility industries, where environmental performance is increasingly linked to long-term competitiveness and operational resilience.
The company has also outlined a Net Zero by 2040 target, which has been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Net Zero commitments are becoming a key benchmark for companies seeking alignment with international climate objectives.
Recognition within sustainability assessments can also influence investor confidence and supply chain partnerships, particularly as ESG requirements become more integrated into procurement and financing decisions.
