The EcoVadis sustainability rating, one of the world’s largest providers for evaluating ESG activities (ESG: Environmental, Social, and Governance), assesses criteria across the areas of environment, labor and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement, awarding medals annually. With a score of 87 out of a possible 100 points, Pfleiderer now ranks in the top 1 percent of the approximately 130,000 companies assessed. Key factors contributing to this success include advancements in environmental protection, the introduction of additional metrics in ESG reporting, and top scores in labor/human rights and procurement.
"As they say, it gets tougher at the top. All the more remarkable is our continued rise into the absolute elite of the EcoVadis ranking,” emphasizes Dr. Frank Herrmann, CEO of the Pfleiderer Group. “We have always said that we won’t rest on our laurels and are committed to ongoing improvement. This top accolade is a testament to the tireless work of the entire Pfleiderer team, especially during these economically challenging times. A heartfelt thank you to all our employees!”
