Solon, Ohio—Tarkett earned an A Score in the CDP climate rating for the second year in a row. The company is a global leader in sustainable flooring and sports surface solutions. 
The rating placed Tarkett among the top companies out of 20,000 assessed worldwide. The score highlighted the company’s climate leadership. An A score showed Tarkett implemented best practices in climate management across operations and its value chain.
“CDP’s A List validates the strength of our climate roadmap and governance, as well as the growing expertise of our teams,” said Arnaud Marquis, Tarkett’s chief sustainability and safety officer. “The planet’s resources are finite. This is an undeniable fact. For years, our teams have shown that the demand to use less is not a limitation, but an inspiration and a catalyst for doing better. We remain focused on reducing emissions and aligning our business models with the planet’s limited resources, helping our customers lower their own carbon footprints.”
CDP is a global nonprofit that runs the world’s leading independent environmental disclosure system. In the last two years, CDP’s assessment evolved to align with the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive. The changes increased the rigor required to achieve an A rating.
Tarkett’s climate targets were approved by the Science Based Targets initiative in 2023. The goals set a 30% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions across the value chain by 2030 compared to 2019. The company advanced its sustainability strategy through eco-design, increased use of recycled materials, sustainable purchasing and continuous team development.
Since 2023, Tarkett earned EcoVadis’ Platinum Medal for two consecutive years. The recognition set a benchmark in the flooring and sports surfaces industry.
