Netstal achieves silver rating in Ecovadis sustainability assessment
Netstal has advanced to a silver rating in the Ecovadis sustainability ranking, placing the company in the top 15 per cent of all businesses assessed by Ecovadis in the past year. The rating reflects Netstal’s progress in areas such as environmental impact, labor and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement.
“We are proud of the silver medal we have just won. Sustainability is very important to us and is firmly anchored in our vision and corporate policy. We see the protection of the environment and climate protection, as well as the protection of people, as important cornerstones of our business. We will continue to build on this to develop even further in the coming years,” says Renzo Davatz, CEO of the Netstal Group.
Scope 1 and Scope 2 CO2 emissions were reduced by a further 17 per cent compared to the previous assessment period. Water consumption was also further reduced. The recording of Scope 3 emissions in downstream processes that take place outside the company was also optimized. Michael Rocholl, Head of Quality and Process Management: “We now know the CO2 emissions of our injection moulding machines that are used productively by our customers. This information is very important for us in order to further optimise the energy efficiency of our technology and further reduce Scope 3 emissions.”
The Ecovadis ranking makes the company’s sustainability measurable and comparable for its external and internal target groups. Michael Rocholl: “The annual review by Ecovadis helps us to understand our ESG framework even better and provides guidance on which areas and measures we should focus on in the future. We have defined further measures in all dimensions with which Netstal can operate even more sustainably.”
