Garching, Germany, February 05, 2025 – As a global leader in lighting solutions, LEDVANCE is committed to measuring and reducing the environmental impact of its products and services. Therefore, LEDVANCE is proud to announce that the company has been awarded an EcoVadis silver medal for its sustainability performance, placing the company among the top 15 percent of companies globally regarding sustainability performance. Since 2024, EcoVadis applied new, stricter criteria with the silver medal now awarded to only the top 15 percent of companies.
To evaluate its sustainability efforts and achievements and make them visible to stakeholders, LEDVANCE has been using EcoVadis sustainability ratings since 2018, which assess performances in the areas of “Environment”, “Labor & Human Rights”, “Ethics” and “Sustainable Procurement”. For LEDVANCE, it is the 5th silver medal after 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2018; and a bronze medal in 2020.
Laura Fernández Gutiérrez, Product Sustainability Manager at LEDVANCE: "The EcoVadis silver medal is an achievement we can be proud of. Taking this year’s new requirements into consideration, we scored higher than in the past year. This milestone on our sustainability journey is a result of the collective dedication of our global team to making sustainability a core part of our mission."
With an overall score of 68/100 – up from 65 last year – and a position in the 88th percentile rank, this achievement highlights LEDVANCE’s ongoing efforts in all four categories of EcoVadis.
The percentile rank compares a company’s performance with all rated companies in the EcoVadis database over the last 12 months. This ranking is calculated across all industries.
