INX Europe announced that Sakata INX Espaṅa, its manufacturing subsidiary of inks and coatings in Barcelona, Spain, has been recognized with a Platinum medal from EcoVadis.

“For INX Europe, achieving Platinum demonstrates that our sustainability management systems and practices meet the highest level of external evaluation. It also positions our European operations among the strongest performers within the global chemical and manufacturing sectors assessed by EcoVadis,” said Cleo Nomikos, President of INX Europe.

This places INX Europe among the top 1% of companies worldwide and validates INX’s commitment to continuous improvement, transparency, and innovation at all global operations. 

It also extends a streak of impressive performance where EcoVadis recently bestowed medals to other INX Europe subsidiaries in the UK (Silver) and Germany (Bronze).

INX Europe’s Sakata INX Espaṅa location achieved the Platinum rating by increasing its overall score to 86, with notable advanced improvements in the Environmental, Labor and Human Rights, and Sustainable Procurement categories.

“Compared to last year, the progress in these categories is significant,” indicated Elizabeth Smith, INX Europe’s Environmental, Social and Governance Director. “The increase is largely attributed to the introduction of more robust policies and procedures, strengthened assurance activities, and a marked increase in training and stakeholder engagement. These actions not only improved the organization’s performance, but it also demonstrates a greater maturity and consistency in how sustainability commitments are embedded into day-to-day operations.”
