EcoVadis uses both innovative technology and its sustainability expertise to engage with companies and help them adopt sustainable practices throughout their global supply chains. Its guiding concept of sustainability is an integration of social and environmental concerns, as reflected in the commitment on the part of those companies it monitors, to responsible practices as a fundamental ethical framework for their business operations. This is not simply a question of regulatory compliance but of relationships, whether with employees, trading partners or government. Sustainability criteria for EcoVadis's assessment span a comprehensive range of areas, including energy consumption, biodiversity, customer health and safety, labor and HR, ethics, and procurement.
Importantly for Victrex, the attempt to reach high levels of sustainability won't be stopping with this Gold Medal. Rather, the company regards it very much as a continuous ongoing process.
