OUR VISION

We want to be:

THE WORLDWIDE LEADER…​

We aim to pursue our growth trajectory so that we remain a leader in most of our markets. Being a leader implies – through our values, commitments and daily actions – to be a pioneer, drive the transformation of the market, and pave the way for others, by continuously innovating with and for our whole ecosystem. It is also to be the reference for all our stakeholders: employees, customers, end consumers, partners, investors and citizens. ​

... IN LIGHT AND SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION ​

Our value proposition is about offering alternatives to heavy build with construction modes, solutions and services that deliver more sustainability (reduced carbon emissions, lower resource consumption, easy dismantling, better comfort…) and more performance (shorter construction time, financial savings, etc…).​

With this vision, which gives full meaning to our engagement to reach carbon neutrality in 2050, we contribute to the global effort to fight climate change, protect natural resources and provide comfortable and decent housing to all. ​

Saint-Gobain unveils its new vision: the video thumbnail

Our vision is to become the worldwide leader in light and sustainable construction. In a world moving towards net-zero carbon, Saint-Gobain aims to provide a full range of solutions that address three major issues of our time: drastically reducing the 40% of CO2 emissions linked to construction, protecting natural resources, and facing the challenge of rapid urbanization in emerging countries. Today we are launching a new strategic plan, “Grow & Impact”, with the ambition to significantly accelerate our profitable growth and the value creation for our shareholders.

The Group will build on the success of its new local organization and its “multi-national” culture driven by performance and by proximity to its customers, in order to benefit fully from strong growth on its underlying markets.
