We’re Proud to Have Achieved a Bronze Medal in the EcoVadis 2025 Sustainability Assessment

 

We’re delighted to share that our ongoing commitment to sustainability has been recognised with a Bronze Medal in the EcoVadis 2025 sustainability assessment! This achievement places us in the 80th percentile of companies worldwide, the top 35% of companies in our sector, and marks an important step forward in our journey to reduce our environmental impact and operate responsibly across all areas of our business.

What is EcoVadis?

EcoVadis is the world’s most trusted providers of business sustainability ratings. The platform assesses companies on their performance across environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria, including:

  • Environmental practices
  • Labour and human rights
  • Ethics
  • Sustainable procurement

With over 125,000 businesses assessed worldwide, EcoVadis provides a globally recognised benchmark that allows companies to demonstrate their sustainability credentials to customers, suppliers and partners.

What Does the Bronze Medal Mean for Us?

Achieving a Bronze Medal places us in the 80th percentile of all companies that undergo the EcoVadis assessment, and in the top 35% of companies in our sector that have demonstrated a strong foundation in sustainability practices and transparency.

This recognition also highlights the work of our team, who continue to embed sustainability into daily operations while looking for new opportunities to innovate and improve.

“The EcoVadis Bronze Medal is a fantastic accomplishment and will serve as a great benchmark for continuous improvement in line with our wider ESG strategy. More importantly, for our customers and suppliers, it’s an independent validation that we are serious about making progress in areas such as carbon reduction, responsible sourcing and ethical governance.”

Shannon Yallop – SHEQ Manager

Why Sustainability Matters

Operating sustainably is not just about meeting targets or gaining recognition — it’s about doing what’s right for our people, our communities and our planet. By reducing our carbon footprint, working responsibly with suppliers and engaging our teams in meaningful initiatives, we’re helping to create long-term value while minimising negative impact.

Sustainability is also increasingly important to our customers, who want to work with partners that take ESG seriously. Achieving EcoVadis Bronze reassures them that we are committed to progress and accountability.

How This Fits Into Our Wider Sustainability Efforts

While this recognition is a fantastic milestone and gives us clear opportunities to grow, it’s only a small part of a much larger journey. We are actively working on strengthening our sustainable procurement practices, ensuring our supply chain reflects the same values we uphold internally.

 

Alongside EcoVadis, we are actively working towards our Science-Based Targets for carbon reduction, engaging with our teams through sustainability workshops, and partnering with experts to ensure our progress is both measurable and meaningful.

We see sustainability as a continuous journey, not a one-time achievement. The Bronze Medal is an important recognition, but more importantly, it motivates us to push further.

Looking ahead, we remain focused on continuous improvement, transparency, and innovation in sustainability. Together, we can build a safer, greener, and more responsible future for our company and community.
