“This is an outstanding achievement in a competitive landscape
where the growing ambition of companies is pushing ever higher

Executive Officer. “The momentum for change is challenging what it
means to be a sustainable business in a world where growth and
value creation remain just as vital.
“For Brambles and our operating company CHEP, this recognition
speaks to the successful, cross-sector collaborations we’ve built
with customers, partners and suppliers to align on sustainability
goals, and the unwavering support from employees and stakeholders

sharing, repairing and reuse of pallets, shines as the world’s
top-ranked company which promotes circularity, a hallmark of a
sustainable economy,” said Toby Heaps, CEO of Corporate

What is the Global 100?
Since 2005, the Global 100 has been one of the world’s most
valued and transparent rules-based sustainability ratings that
emphasizes the impact of a company’s core products and services. It
is the best-performing global sustainability index (ticker:
CKG100), with more than 10 years of history. All publicly traded
companies with more than US$1 billion in revenue are assessed
across 25 key performance indicators (KPIs) covering resource
management, employee management, financial management, sustainable

offerings and allocating meaningful investments to reduce their
carbon footprints make the grade.
