STOCKHOLM, July 1, 2025 — In a testament to its ongoing commitment to environmental stewardship, Husqvarna Group has been named one of the World’s Most Sustainable Companies for the second consecutive year by TIME and Statista. The company ranks among the top Swedish firms on the prestigious 2025 global list, which highlights 500 companies worldwide for their exceptional dedication to sustainability.
The announcement comes as part of an annual ranking developed by TIME in collaboration with data analytics firm Statista. The rigorous selection process began with over 5,000 of the world’s largest and most influential companies, narrowing down to those demonstrating outstanding sustainable practices through a four-step methodology. This process involved excluding companies in non-sustainable industries, assessing external sustainability ratings, evaluating ESG reporting transparency, and analyzing key environmental and social performance indicators such as emissions intensity, renewable energy use, gender diversity, and employee well-being.
Commitment to Continuous Improvement
Calle Medin, Head of Sustainability at Husqvarna Group, expressed pride in the company’s ongoing recognition. “Being acknowledged as one of the world’s most sustainable companies for the second year in a row is a strong validation of our efforts.
