Vienna/Kremsmünster, October 1, 2024 – For the second time in a row, the Greiner Group and its divisions Greiner Packaging, Greiner Bio-One, and NEVEON have received the globally recognized EcoVadis sustainability rating. Greiner was awarded 80 out of 100 points, which corresponds to platinum status. This puts Greiner in the top one percent of all companies worldwide with a valid EcoVadis certificate. In the previous year, Greiner secured a Group-wide gold rating.
Sustainability ratings also create trust and transparency among stakeholders and are becoming increasingly important in the financial market. As early as 2022, Greiner set the goal of only working with strategic suppliers with an EcoVadis rating of at least 50 points by 2030.
“We’re delighted that we, as a group of companies, have been able to improve from Gold status to Platinum status in just one year. This shows that we’re on the right track with our sustainability efforts and that we are setting a good example. We don’t demand anything that we don’t do ourselves,” says Grafenhorst.
“Blue Plan” sustainability strategy sets ambitious targets
In line with its “Blue Plan” sustainability strategy, Greiner has set itself ambitious goals in the areas of people, climate protection, and the circular economy. For example, Greiner aims to be a fully circular company by 2030. The company has also committed to comprehensive climate targets, which were confirmed by the global Science Based Targets initiative in the previous year. Every year, Greiner provides information on its sustainability initiatives and the progress made in its integrated annual and sustainability report.
