EcoVadis Silver Medal Certification


Recognizing Our Commitment to Sustainability

We’re thrilled to announce our latest achievement! We have received the prestigious EcoVadis certification, recognizing our unwavering dedication to sustainability. This certification reflects our ongoing commitment to responsible and environmentally-friendly business practices.

Let us share our success and demonstrate our dedication to creating a more sustainable future.

 

What is the EcoVadis rating and medal?

To perform its evaluation, EcoVadis relies on a number of documents provided by the company being certified. The company must provide written evidence of its CSR efforts.

In its analysis, EcoVadis takes into account:

  • the environment (evaluation of energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, local pollution generated, etc.);EcoVadis Overall Score
  • social and human rights (working conditions and employee safety, training organization, etc.);
  • responsible purchasing (environmental and social practices of the evaluated company’s suppliers);
  • ethics (study of anti-competitive practices, for example).

Following this diagnosis, which considers the company’s sector of activity and size, a score between 0 and 100 is assigned and the evaluated company can be awarded a medal (bronze, silver, gold, or platinum). Winoa received an overall score of 61 out of 100 and the silver medal, which is a real achievement in an industry where the average score is 45/100.

The ratings and medals aim to encourage companies to take responsibility for environmental protection and to respect the integrity and well-being of their employees; it is a medium-term approach, and the search for improvement is very important in the process. That is why the evaluation is valid for 12 months.
