Samsung SDI

Samsung SDI is a batteries-category leader because it publishes a dedicated Sustainability Report 2025 as an official direct-download PDF, which supports evidence-first scoring without relying on corporate sustainability hub summaries.

Score breakdown

Resource efficiency

88

Based on publicly disclosed data, the report-grade packaging makes materials, waste, and circularity discussion easier to audit than brands whose disclosures are fragmented across press releases and webpages.

Impact on environment

92

Battery manufacturing drives real climate exposure. A clearly labeled 2025 report-year disclosure reduces ambiguity about reporting boundaries and period coverage compared with older or unlabeled ESG packages.

Social responsibility

86

Battery supply chains concentrate human-rights and safety risk in upstream materials. The 2025 sustainability report format gives a usable surface for evaluating governance and oversight signals, while acknowledging limits.

Economic benefits

94

Electrification and storage economics are long-run. That makes sustainability programs more likely to be measured and funded as part of operational performance rather than treated as discretionary branding.

Certifications and signals

Ranked #2 in our Top Sustainable Battery Companies In 2026 list.
