EcoVadis, the world’s largest provider of sustainability rankings, awarded ECKART with the Platinum status.
ECKART announced that EcoVadis has awarded the company with the Platinum status for its sustainability efforts.
In the periodic assessment, EcoVadis examines the measures by which companies reduce their environmental effects and strengthen their sustainable supply chains. The rating agency also analyses the efforts regarding labour and human rights. Only 1% of all chemical companies evaluated by EcoVadis achieve the Platinum level.
“The result makes us very proud”, says CEO Dr. Christian Przybyla. “It rewards our work to date in the area of sustainability and motivates us to achieve our goals in view of the many opportunities and challenges that lie ahead of us.”
This year, ECKART’s newly introduced Carbon Management Level was on the agenda for the first time, for which the company achieved the rating “Advanced”. In all, score results added up to 79 out of 100 points.
