Xilam awarded EthiFinance Platinium certificate
Xilam Animation has been awarded the Platinum certificate, the highest level granted by EthiFinance, for its 2024 ESG performance, a significant improvement from the Silver certificate obtained in 2023.
Achieving a remarkable score of 82/100, up 15 points compared to 2022 and 22 points on 2021. EthiFinance evaluates companies based on 140 criteria covering the 4 pillars of ESG (Environment, Social, Governance and External Stakeholders). Xilam reports strong improvements in the first 3 pillars:
+45 points in Environment, +12 points in Social and +8 points in Governance, while keeping a high profile for External Stakeholders.
Xilam is now ranked 2nd out of 136 in its “Media and Entertainment” category, 22nd out of 360 at country level.
These results reflect the concrete actions undertaken by the group as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) strategy. Driven by the awareness of its teams- creative, technical and support – and the convictions of its management, Xilam has, since 2023, strengthened its responsible purchasing policy, invested in more environmentally-friendly technologies, optimised its production processes, reduced and streamlined the volume of its data and storage, extended the lifespan of its equipment, and launched awareness initiatives, both internally and externally, notably through its dedicated platform Xilam Green (rse.xilam.com).
True to its core values of diversity, equality and inclusion, Xilam places social issues at the heart of its strategic priorities. The company values the richness of diverse backgrounds, education and cultures, while ensuring equal opportunities for career progression, with a strong commitment to gender equality.
