Severfield recognised as Financial Times Europe’s Climate Leader for the 5th time

At Severfield, our commitment to sustainability has once again been recognised by the Financial Times and data insight company Statista.

FT Europes Climate Leader 2025

We are thrilled to announce that Severfield has been named Financial Times Europe’s Climate Leader for the fifth consecutive year, ranking 4th in the UK Construction and building materials category.

The recognition reflects our ongoing efforts to integrate sustainable practices into every part of our operations, and to help ease off the planet's finite resources. Over the last year, we have focused on our plant and machinery to reduce our diesel consumption and increase energy efficiency.

This included:

  • Investment in 12 new HR17 Hybrid machines, which use Electric & HVO technology to significantly reduce emissions compared to traditional diesel-powered equipment.
  • Successful trials of electric forklift trucks and side loaders across our factories.
  • Continued transition to LED lighting to improve energy efficiency across all lines.
"Our fifth consecutive recognition as FT Europe’s Climate Leader is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the entire Group across the years. It reinforces our commitment to sustainability and encourages us drive collaboration within our industry." - Michaela Lindridge, Head of ESG

Severfield’s sustainability initiatives are anchored in our Net Zero 2050 roadmap, which outlines ambitious, SBTi validated targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and enhancing resource efficiency across all our projects and facilities.

Our commitment to sustainability extends beyond internal efforts. We actively collaborate with industry partners, clients, and stakeholders to promote a greener future. Our partnerships showcase our dedication to driving positive change throughout our operations.

Looking ahead, Severfield remains committed to lead by example, setting higher standards for sustainability in the steel fabrication industry and beyond.

Severfield annually reports key figures, CO2e emissions, and objectives in its annual CDP Disclosure.
