Laura Willemsen, group director sustainability and marketing at Stahl, said: “The continuous improvement in our EcoVadis score is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our global teams. Achieving a Platinum rating for three consecutive years in such a competitive landscape is no small feat.
“While we are honoured to have achieved a Platinum rating again, we recognise that there is still room for improvement for both Stahl and the wider market. We remain committed to driving further improvements in sustainability, transparency and responsible practices.”
Stahl has set ambitious sustainability targets for 2030, aiming to maintain its Platinum rating and continue improving across all ESG pillars. The company said it is working closely with its supply chain partners to reduce environmental impact, drive social responsibility, and promote ethical business practices worldwide.
