Earlier this year, Johnson and Johnson was awarded Innovation in Decarbonisation – Large (over 1,000 employees), celebrating its rigorous adherence to ISO and complementary standards, My Green Lab certification, and Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi)-validated climate goals.

For more than twenty years, the company has consistently pursued measurable reductions in emissions while embedding sustainability across global operations.

Judges praised Johnson and Johnson for its mature, comprehensive approach to energy management, noting the combination of long-term planning, staff engagement, and practical, data-driven outcomes.

“Our judges were captivated by this entrant with its long-term, strategic commitment to emissions reduction,” the panel said. “With a wide range of measurable outcomes, and two decades of decarbonisation that continue to be relentlessly pursued, this is a standout example of leadership, community engagement, and sustained excellence in sustainability.”

As momentum builds from the 2025 winners, Johnson and Johnson’s success sets a benchmark for future entrants, encouraging organisations to push the boundaries of energy efficiency, innovation, and low-carbon leadership.

Its achievement exemplifies how strategic planning, technical expertise, and environmental commitment can deliver measurable results while inspiring peers across industries in 2026.
