GEA Group Aktiengesellschaft has been selected to become a constituent of the Dow Jones Sustainability Europe Index (DJSI Europe) effective December 19, 2022. In this year’s review, GEA is the only German company to be added into the DJSI Europe.

  • GEA selected for inclusion in DJSI Europe based on significant improvement in S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment score 
  • GEA is the only German company to be added to the DJSI Europe in this year’s annual review 
  • CEO Stefan Klebert: “Our efforts in 2022 demonstrate GEA’s sustainability leadership”

Inclusion in the DJSI is based on the annual evaluation of the S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment. This year, over 10,000 companies were invited to take part in the assessment. GEA significantly improved its score by 13 points to reach 69 out of 100 points in 2022 from 56 points in the previous year. Strong results were achieved in the categories “Business Ethics”, “Materiality”, “Information Security/Cybersecurity & System Availability” as well as “Environmental Reporting” and “Social Reporting”.

“Our efforts in 2022 clearly demonstrate GEA’s sustainability leadership,” says GEA CEO Stefan Klebert. “We are extremely proud to have entered into the DJSI Europe already this year – a goal we had set ourselves for 2026 at the latest as part of our Mission 26 strategy. I would like to thank our teams for their enduring commitment to our purpose, ‘Engineering for a better world’.”
