The cushion vinyl division of Beaulieu International Group has[Cd1] been awarded the EcoVadis Gold medal, recognising its strong performance in sustainability, ethics and responsible business practices. With an overall score of 80/100, Beauflor ranks among the top 5% of companies worldwide assessed by EcoVadis and the top 2% within the manufacture of plastics products industry.
“Our EcoVadis Gold rating reflects excellence across all four pillars: Environment, Labour & Human Rights, Ethics and Sustainable Procurement.”, says Nele Tack, General Manager Beauflor. “It confirms our commitment to continue making meaningful progress in a responsible and transparent way.”
EcoVadis is one of the world’s leading sustainability assessment platforms[DD2] in global supply chains, evaluating companies on 21 environmental[DD3] , social and ethical criteria. A Gold rating confirms that a company’s policies, actions and results meet high international ESG standards.
Strong results across all ESG dimensions
Beauflor achieved high scores across all four EcoVadis assessment areas:
- Environment: 81/100
- Labour & Human Rights: 79/100
- Ethics: 84/100
- Sustainable Procurement: 73/100
Within its industry, Beauflor’s performance stands out even further, ranking top 2% overall, top 4% for Environment, top 3% for Labor & Human Rights and Sustainable Procurement, and top 1% for Ethics.
These results demonstrate a balanced and consistently high sustainability performance, covering not only environmental impact but also responsible business conduct [DD4] and supply chain engagement.
Sustainability as a long-term commitment
For Beauflor, sustainability goes beyond environmental considerations alone. It encompasses ethical behaviour, respect for people and transparent collaboration with partners across the value chain. The EcoVadis Gold rating reflects years of continuous improvement and cross-functional collaboration throughout the organisation.
“Earning EcoVadis Gold is more than a medal, it’s a statement. It shows that when we commit to sustainability with purpose and passion, we can lead by example and inspire change across our value chain” comments Dorine Degryse, Sustainability Coordinator at Beauflor.
The EcoVadis Gold medal is valid until January 2027 and will serve as a benchmark for Beauflor’s ongoing sustainability ambitions.
