Kuusakoski has earned a Gold Medal in the EcoVadis sustainability assessment. Our score improved significantly, placing us among the top 2% of companies evaluated worldwide.
EcoVadis, which conducts international assessments of supply chain sustainability, has awarded Kuusakoski Oy Gold-level recognition. In the previous assessment, we ranked in the top 6%; now, we are proud to be in the top 2%.
"We have worked hard across the entire Group to strengthen our sustainability efforts, improve measurement, and make our progress visible. This achievement feels fantastic and is the result of true collaboration," says Tuomas Haikka, Chief Sustainability Officer.
CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT
EcoVadis is a globally recognised benchmark for sustainability. This achievement reflects Kuusakoski’s commitment to environmental responsibility, social accountability, and ethical business practices.
This time, we made particularly strong improvements in labour & human rights and sustainable procurement.
The EcoVadis assessment is based on four key categories: environment, labour & human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement.
Kuusakoski once again achieved excellent scores in the environmental category and exceeded the average in every area. This time, we made particularly strong improvements in labour & human rights and sustainable procurement.
"Reaching Gold level and moving into the top 2% globally shows that our long-term efforts to advance sustainability are paying off. This is not just recognition of past achievements – it sends a strong message to our customers and partners that we are committed to continuous improvement and to leading the way in sustainable development."
Kuusakoski’s ambition remains clear: to be a leading player in sustainable development within our industry. The EcoVadis result is a tangible way to demonstrate this commitment.
