The annual Global 100 list ranks companies of the worldagainst key performance indicators such as revenues in relation to consumption of energy and water. Construction companies are notably absent from the list, leaving Atlas Copco as the industry’s sole representative.
Atlas Copco was included on the list for five consecutive years until 2010, but was not ranked in 2011.
The only UK company in the top 10 is BG Group. Centrica, the next UK company, is ranked 22nd. Five of the top 10 are Scandinavian companies.
Atlas Copco senior vice president corporate communications Annika Berglund said: “Our work to develop Atlas Copco in a sustainable and profitable way is yielding results. This long-standing effort was further enhanced last year with the introduction of a range of new goals. We are proud to see this development recognized on the Global 100 list.”
