Geiger’s (PPAI 105182, Platinum) operations in the UK have been awarded Platinum status by EcoVadis for the third year in a row. The award places the PPAI 100 No. 5 distributor’s UK operations in the top 1% of all businesses reviewed, reinforcing the organization’s growing reputation as a champion in sustainable operations and customer solutions.

• EcoVadis is the leading collaborative platform for sharing sustainability data between businesses, and the world’s most trusted provider for assessing corporate performance in the field of sustainable development.
• The assessment itself covers four pillars: environment, labor and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement. To receive the very highest rating of Platinum, companies need to score above 78% overall across all pillars. Geiger achieved a score of 90% in the overall assessment, placing it in the top 1% of businesses reviewed.

“A Platinum award status is a great testimony to our business, our team and our culture,” says Vicky Kinasz, managing director of Geiger International. “We’re so proud that after first attaining Platinum status in 2022, we have been able to not only maintain our award, but to improve our commitment to sustainability and achieve our highest score ever, 90/100!”
