Sun Chemical receives silver sustainability rating

PACKAGING solutions producer Sun Chemical has received a silver rating for its sustainability efforts across all business units and regions from EcoVadis.

The rating places Sun Chemical in the top 25% of rated companies within its business sector and was earned through EcoVadis’ assessment in four categories — environment, ethics, labor and human rights, and sustainable procurement.

“Recognition from EcoVadis is an exciting milestone in Sun Chemical’s journey toward sustainability,” said Mike Simoni, global sustainability director at Sun Chemical. “This award is a strong reflection of our dedication to improving eco-efficiency and providing industry advancements in sustainability as we work with DIC Corporation toward our goal of carbon neutrality by 2050.”

Sun Chemical added that the silver rating is evidence of the ongoing efficacy of the firm’s sustainability initiatives which are organised into the three pillars of sustainable operations, collaborative sustainability initiatives, and sustainable products and services.
