Methanex, the world’s largest producer and supplier of methanol has
been awarded a gold medal sustainability rating from EcoVadis, the
leading assessment platform for environmental, social, and ethical
performance ratings for global supply chains. The rating puts
Methanex among the top 5% of all companies assessed.
The EcoVadis gold medal 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 recognized international
sustainability standards.
“We’re incredibly proud to have received the
EcoVadis gold level rating which recognizes our commitment to
making continuous improvements in integrating sustainability across
our company,” said Vanessa James, Methanex’s Senior Vice President
of Corporate Development and Sustainability.
Methanex’s gold medal assessment is largely
attributed to enhancements in standards and practices for
contractor/supplier management, audits and training programs for
business ethics, including cybersecurity, as well as the company’s
focus on the management of greenhouse gas emissions, diversity
& inclusion, and human rights.
