Michelman has again earned a Gold sustainability rating from EcoVadis, maintaining its place among the top-rated companies worldwide for a third consecutive year. The 2025 rating reflects the company's continued leadership on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance in an increasingly competitive landscape.

EcoVadis evaluates more than 150,000 companies across 185 countries using a comprehensive assessment framework that includes environmental impact, labor and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement. "Maintaining our Gold status is not simple. It is through the exemplary efforts of our global team that we maintain this ranking." said Chuck Hardy, Michelman’s director, global sustainability and R&D systems at Michelman. "As the overall performance of rated companies improves, the threshold for recognition moves as well.”

With awareness that continued progress is essential, the company is implementing an ongoing internal action plan, focused on advancing long-term ESG performance. 

"While some organizations are pausing or restating their environmental goals, we're moving forward. Our commitment to sustainability is rooted in our values. It guides our decisions, our innovations, and how we work with partners across the value chain," said Rick Michelman, president and CEO.
