EcoVadis SAS is a Paris‑based provider of business sustainability ratings and supply‑chain intelligence. Founded in 2007, the company evaluates organizations using an evidence‑based methodology aligned with international standards such as ISO 26000, the UN Global Compact, ILO conventions, and GRI. Its universal scorecards cover four themes—Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement—and include documented evidence, strengths and improvement areas, and performance benchmarks. Ratings are expressed in tiers (e.g., Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum) to support comparative assessment.
Across the chemical value chain, EcoVadis is used by producers, distributors, and suppliers to assess ESG performance, manage responsible sourcing, and engage suppliers on risk reduction and continuous improvement. The platform supports corrective action planning, supplier development, and reporting needs, and offers tools for carbon management and value‑chain collaboration relevant to Scope 3 initiatives. EcoVadis operates globally and integrates with procurement and compliance workflows to help organizations monitor and improve sustainability performance across their networks.
