Reducing environmental impact while maintaining product excellence
Interflon advances sustainability journey with EcoVadis Silver Rating
Interflon is proud to announce it has achieved the EcoVadis Silver rating, marking a significant milestone in the company's commitment to sustainable business practices. This advancement from our previous Bronze rating places Interflon among the top 15% of companies assessed by EcoVadis, the world's most trusted provider of business sustainability ratings.
The assessment, conducted in late 2024, evaluated Interflon's performance across four fundamental themes: Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. We achieved strong scores in the Labor & Human Rights, and Ethics categories and particularly excelled in the Environment category.
"This achievement reflects our unwavering commitment to sustainable practices and responsible business operations," says Frank van Gendt, Director of Operations at Interflon. "We're not just creating innovative lubrication solutions; we're building a more sustainable future for our industry. This Silver rating validates our efforts and motivates us to aim even higher."
Continuous improvement and innovation
Following our Bronze rating, Interflon implemented several strategic improvements. These include the introduction of a whistleblower system, demonstrating our dedication to ethical business practices.
Our environmental performance was driven by innovative initiatives such as the introduction of PCR (Post-Consumer Recycled) packaging for grease cartridges and the achievement of Ecolabel certification for our Interflon Bio Grease MP2. These developments underscore Interflon's commitment to reducing environmental impact while maintaining product excellence.
Looking ahead
The EcoVadis Silver rating serves as both a recognition of Interflon's progress and a stepping stone toward even greater sustainability achievements. As we continue to innovate and improve our practices, we remain focused on delivering sustainable solutions that meet the evolving needs of our industrial partners while protecting our planet's resources.
This recognition reinforces Interflon's position as a responsible leader in the industrial lubricants sector and demonstrates our commitment to creating lasting value for our customers, employees, and the environment.
