Horizon Group — Annual Report · 2025 09 / 15
Our Approach to Sustainability
Sustainability at Horizon Group is governed the same way as everything else that matters: with named owners, published targets, and external scrutiny.
How sustainability is governed
The board’s sustainability committee, chaired by the independent director Dr. Nadia Ferrand, meets five times a year and reviews progress against every published target. Since 2024 we have reported under the CSRD framework, with limited external assurance covering all published environmental figures. The link to pay is explicit: 20% of executive variable compensation is tied to the published carbon-reduction trajectory.
In 2025 we refreshed our double materiality analysis, consulting 1,200 stakeholders — customers, employees, suppliers, investors, and the communities around our sites. The result confirmed our five priority topics and added a sixth: data privacy and cyber security.
What matters most
Outcome of the 2025 double materiality refresh — 1,200 stakeholders consulted, six priority topics confirmed.
Accountability in numbers
“A target only becomes credible when someone is accountable for it and paid against it. My committee’s job is to make sure both are always true.”
From strategy to shop floor
How we cut emissions by 40% five years ahead of schedule — and what the road to net zero looks like from here.
