Epson has earned its third successive platinum rating for sustainability from EcoVadis.
The award is in recognition of the company’s global efforts to uphold the highest standards on the environment, labour and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement. The platinum rating ranks Epson in the top 1% of companies in its industry, particularly in the fields of the environment as well as sustainable procurement.
The independent evaluation methodology is based on a framework of 21 sustainability criteria mapped to global standards and guided by the international scientific community.
Yasunori Ogawa, global president at Epson said, ‘Our company is focused on achieving sustainability through our products, technologies and operations. This third consecutive platinum accreditation is the result of a lot of hard work and highlights the steadfast commitment and actions by the entire Epson team as we seek to achieve a sustainable future.
‘In line with our goal of becoming carbon negative by 2050, we will continue to challenge ourselves to perform to the highest standards for sustainable practices, both as an organisation and a member of the wider global community.’
