The Hansgrohe Group has been awarded the Platinum Medal in the EcoVadis sustainability rating, the highest accolade for its sustainability performance. This places the manufacturer of faucets and showers from Germany among the top 1% of all 130,000 companies assessed. This is the third time that the company has used the annual systematic evaluation of the globally recognized rating to analyze progress, identify potential for improvement and create greater transparency regarding its sustainability performance thanks to comparable benchmarks from a neutral service provider.
“Only by constantly monitoring and evaluating our sustainability activities can we continuously gain important insights and opportunities for comparison. This is the basis on which we initiate new projects and changes in all areas of the company,” explains Rebecca Weigold, Head of Green Company Hansgrohe SE. Comprehensive ethics and compliance training for our own employees, the integration of social and ecological issues into the company’s purchasing guidelines and support for national and international sustainability networks and initiatives are some of the successful measures that led to the leap from silver to platinum in the previous year.
