Sustainability

How Aviva is helping protect the planet

Our ambition

We have an ambition to become a Net Zero company by 2040.

We are looking to work with organisations who have a shared ambition to reduce our environmental impact globally, and particularly those who have demonstrated this commitment through setting science-based targets.  

Our key suppliers are required to make their own public commitments to Net Zero.

What are we doing?

Set Targets – we set a science-based target for our supply chain in 2022 which we met at year-end 2025

Tracking and measuring – we will continue to track and measure the portion of our supply chain that have validated science-based targets  

Training our buyers - we will annually, we are upskilling our buyers to equip them with the knowledge required to engage their suppliers on sustainability  

Changing our contracts - we are embedding ESG focused contract clauses into all our contracts

RFP questions - we have included ESG and carbon questions in all our RFP and RFI processes and considered the outcomes when making purchasing decisions

Onboarding questions - we have included ESG and carbon questions into all supplier onboarding processes  

Supplier engagement activities – hosting in‑person supplier events to engage our suppliers on our Net Zero agenda and provide opportunities for education and collaboration
