Kautex earns Platinum rating from EcoVadis
Kautex is awarded the Ecovadis Platinum Medal. EcoVadis evaluates companies based on their performance in four key categories: environment, labor and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement. We achieved the bronze medal last year and are now moving up three steps on the podium - this rating reflects the improvements achieved across the assessed categories compared to the previous year. According to EcoVadis 2024 rating methodology, Kautex ranks among the top 1% of rated companies.
EcoVadis is the world's largest provider of sustainability ratings and evaluates more than 130,000 companies from over 180 countries.

In our assessment this year, we improved in all four categories, with the biggest improvement being in sustainable sourcing. This shows the work we are doing to involve our suppliers in a sustainable future.
Sophie Louis, Director of Energy and Sustainability, said: “This was truly a pleasant surprise and the result of a great cross-functional effort over many weeks between HR, Legal, EHS and the Sustainability team.”
We are of course happy about this achievement, but we also know that our planet can only get better if we get better ourselves. We remain committed to the continuous improvement of our performance in the areas evaluated by EcoVadis.
Responsible business practices in the areas of environment, labour and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement remain key elements of our business strategy.
