Sustainability
We have a big project in mind: to build a sustainable future
Sustainability at the centre of our business
We believe that our growth is closely linked to the development of the territories and communities in which we operate. For this reason, we are committed to translating the principles of sustainable development into real actions and infrastructure projects, helping to build the future we envision.
Webuild recognizes infrastructure sustainability and sustainable construction sites as the two pillars underpinning the Group’s commitment and reputation.
Infrastructure is more than engineering works: it is a driver of progress and a tool for enabling sustainable development. None of our projects would be possible without the determination, passion and resilience of the people who are part of our team. For this reason, we continuously invest in our people, workplace health and safety, training, and professional and managerial development, fostering a culture of widespread leadership that represents one of Webuild’s key distinguishing strengths.
PEOPLE: THE VALUE OF EXPERTISE
"From the Genoa San Giorgio Bridge to the Panama Canal; from the metros of Paris, Rome, New York, and Copenhagen to Italy’s high-speed rail network. These are just a few of the major projects delivered worldwide by Webuild—a milestone achieved thanks to a strong team of 95,000 people, working together in over 50 countries, delivering excellence even in the most extreme conditions."
Values, actions, targets: Sustainability Report & ESG Plan
Sustainability is one of the pillars of our business. We turn the principles of sustainable development into concrete actions by integrating infrastructure sustainability and construction site sustainability across our strategies, operational processes and projects.
