Servomex retains the coveted EcoVadis Gold rating for business sustainability
Servomex has been awarded the EcoVadis Gold Rating for sustainable business practices for the second year in a row.
Renowned as the leading assessment platform for supplier sustainability, EcoVadis ratings provide insight into a supplier’s Corporate Social Responsibility performance, leading to improvements.
Servomex achieved its first Gold Rating in 2022, with EcoVadis recognizing areas including the environmental emergency measures the company has in place, and its specialized treatment and safe disposal of hazardous substances.
In confirming the rating for 2023, EcoVadis noted how Servomex has maintained its environmental standards and made continued progress towards its Sustainable Development Goals.
Mike Proctor, Director: Sustainability and Strategic NPI at Servomex said: “We are delighted to have improved our overall score by 3%, but with a 20% improvement in the Sustainable Procurement Category. It is also noted the EcoVadis scores are competitive rankings, therefore our improved scores show our relative improvement against strong baseline improvements across all industries.”
The externally assessed accreditation measures environmental, social, and ethical performance, providing customers with confidence that Servomex will support and enable their own sustainability efforts.
It also puts Servomex in the top 5% of all manufacturing companies rated by EcoVadis across the year.
Servomex President Andy Cowan said: “It’s great to achieve the EcoVadis Gold Rating for a second successive year. Servomex is committed to empowering change in global industries, to create a cleaner, healthier, and more productive world.
“Part of this means helping our customers to make their processes more sustainable, as well as developing the technologies that will power a greener future. Our expertise empowers them to make more informed decisions, transform their processes, and make a meaningful impact.
“But we also recognize that we must take responsibility for our own business operations and ensure we work responsibly. Sustainability remains at the heart of the Servomex culture and ethos, and this rating recognizes our ongoing efforts to make a positive change in the world.
“We have continued to build on our efforts to lower our energy consumption, improve the environment around our sites, and reduce our emissions, and that’s a journey we will continue into 2024 and beyond.”
