“Gold” EcoVadis Medal

Lallemand Specialty Cultures has been awarded a “Gold” EcoVadis Medal for its commitment to operating in an increasingly sustainable manner.

EcoVadis is the world’s largest and most trusted provider of business sustainability ratings. The assessment focuses on 21 sustainability criteria that are grouped into four themes: Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics and Sustainable Procurement. These criteria are based on international sustainability standards such as the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact, and the International Labor Organization (ILO) conventions.

During the assessment phase, companies are asked to provide responses and supporting evidence on topics such as energy and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, product use, customer safety, employee health and safety, career management and training, anti-discrimination and harassment, anti-competitive practices and supplier social performance.
