Acting together for a better future
Our sustainability approach cover both our internal operations and the services we provide to clients:
In January 2023, we committed to the Science Based Target initiative (SBTi), a collaboration between CDP, the United Nations Global Compact, World Resources Institute (WRI) and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). The SBTi defines and promotes best practice in science-based target setting and independently assesses companies’ decarbonization targets.
In April 2025, RINA S.p.A. approved near and long-term science-based emissions reduction targets with the SBTi.
RINA has published a voluntary Sustainability Report annually since 2017. The report provides information on the company’s sustainability policies, actions, performance and stakeholder engagement activities.
The 2024 report incorporated a double materiality assessment and an EU Taxonomy analysis, with reference to the requirements of the European Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD).
The 2025 Sustainability Report presents updated information on RINA’s sustainability priorities, initiatives, and performance for the reporting period.
Starting with the 2025 Sustainability Report, selected data points are subject to limited assurance by an independent assurance provider. The scope covers ESRS S1-6 – Characteristics of the undertaking’s employees, ESRS E1-5 – Energy consumption and mix, and ESRS E1-6 – Gross Scopes 1, 2, 3 and Total GHG emissions. The independent assurance report is included in the Sustainability Report.
At RINA, we are committed to building open, transparent, and trustworthy relationships with all our stakeholders. Our Stakeholder Engagement Policy and Plan guide how we connect, listen, and collaborate with all Stakeholders.
We believe that building trustworthy relationships with our Stakeholders is a necessary foundation to develop and improve our long-term sustainability operations and strategy, as well as a vital tool in identifying our impacts, risks and opportunities in greater detail.
We joined the United Nations Global Compact in 2016 and continue to make sustainability a cornerstone of our strategy. This commitment guides not only how we work but also the value we bring to our clients.
We embrace the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact, covering human rights, labour standards, the environment, and the fight against corruption, and share our progress with stakeholders every year.
In November 2024, we became a Founding Member of the UN Global Compact Network Italy. This step deepens our contribution to the Sustainable Development Goals and strengthens our role in fostering ethical, inclusive, and transparent business practices in Italy and beyond.
