Sustainability at SCHURTER

SCHURTER AG, headquarter of the SCHURTER Group, has received the bronze rating. The EcoVadis rating is an important tool that helps companies evaluate and continuously improve their sustainability performance.

EcoVadis is an independent platform that rates suppliers and service providers based on environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria. Globally across all industries.

Measuring sustainability performance

EcoVadis offers companies the opportunity to measure and compare their own sustainability performance. Through a rating, they thus receive an objective assessment based on internationally recognized standards. This enables them to identify strengths and weaknesses and take targeted measures to optimize them.

Significance in everyday business

A growing number of companies require their suppliers and partners to have an EcoVadis rating to ensure that they meet the required sustainability standards. A good rating can therefore facilitate access to new business opportunities and markets.
