Lobbying Governance
Overall Assessment Analysis Score
None Viscofan SA’s disclosures provide detailed insights into its board governance processes, including that “The Board of Directors delegates to its Chairman and the General Managing Director the powers of representation” and that “Throughout 2022, the Board met 11 times,” supported by an annual evaluation led by the Appointments, Remuneration and Sustainability Committee. However, we found no evidence of any internal mechanisms, oversight structures, or accountability measures relating to lobbying activities or climate lobbying governance, nor any mention of a policy, review process, or responsible individual overseeing lobbying alignment.

Lobbying Transparency
Overall Assessment Analysis Score
Limited Viscofan provides only limited insight into its climate-related lobbying. It indicates that it has been involved in “talks with public entities in Spain” on two thematic areas—biomass regulation (seeking to have cellulose casings recognised as a qualifying biomass source) and the development of green-hydrogen capacity—but it does not name any specific bill, regulation, or consultation process. The disclosure gives only a broad description of the engagement mechanism (“talks”) and identifies the lobbying target only generically as “public entities in Spain,” without detailing whether this involved formal meetings, written submissions, or industry-association activity. The company articulates just one concrete policy objective—the inclusion of cellulose casings as biomass—while providing no measurable targets or explanation of its position on green-hydrogen policy. Overall, the information offered is high-level and leaves most of the practical details of Viscofan’s lobbying activity undisclosed.
