Clichy, France, June
21, 2022 – BIC announces it has
been recognized with two new distinctions for its corporate ESG
initiatives and sustainable business development.
Specifically, BIC achieved the “Prime” ISS ESG Corporate rating,
fulfilling the holistic sustainability performance requirements
based on an analysis of more than 100 sector-specific ESG factors,
judged against industry peers. In addition, BIC has been included
on Axylia’s 2022 Verité 40*1 (Truth Index 40), affirming the
Company’s ability to cover its “CO2 bill” and continue to create
sustainable value.
“We are honored to have such respected institutions acknowledge
our advancements as we continue to innovate long-lasting products
for our consumers with the planet, society and future generations
in mind.” said Gonzalve Bich, BIC Chief Executive
Officer. “These distinctions give us further confidence we
are on the right path and empower us to go even further in
fulfilling our mission to bring simplicity and joy to everyday
life, responsibly and sustainably.”
BIC’s approach to sustainability is deeply rooted in the
Company’s values and has been a cornerstone of day-to-day
operations for over 70 years. In 2018, the Company reinforced its
commitment to sustainable development by establishing Writing The
Future, Together, a forward looking, global program underpinned by
five major commitments. These commitments that guide corporate
decision making, were recently strengthened by the Company’s GHG
emission reduction targets, membership in the United Nations Global
Compact, and ESG share buyback program.

1 The Axylia Carbon® Score assesses a company's ability to pay
its theoretical Carbon bill. The Carbon bill (CO2 emissions x
Carbon cost) is deducted from the company's EBITDA, leading to a
"Carbon-adjusted" EBITDA, which measures the ability of the company
to remain profitable (A, B, C) or not (D, E, F) once its
theoretical Carbon bill is deducted. BIC was awarded a B score in
2022 and included into to the "2022 Verité 40" Carbon Score
Index.
