Flint Group has demonstrated its commitment to business-wide sustainability with the retention of its Silver rating from EcoVadis. Significantly, EcoVadis designated Flint Group as a category leader in carbon management, noting the company’s best-in-class greenhouse gas (GHG) management system and strong decarbonisation ambition. Notably, the company’s GHG reduction targets are under review by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi).

EcoVadis, the world’s largest provider of business sustainability ratings, evaluates companies around the globe based on environmental, social and ethical performance. During the latest assessment, EcoVadis recognised Flint Group’s dedication to sustainable procurement, and labor and human rights, awarding a notable 10-point increase in both categories, despite a more stringent rating system.

Flint Group is dedicated to assisting its customers in achieving their sustainability objectives and strives to be a dependable partner throughout their journey. Through its multidimensional PRISM framework, sustainability is refracted into three core areas: People, Products, and the Planet. This holistic approach supports Flint Group’s aim to continually raise its EcoVadis rating and its vision of being one of the foremost sustainable leaders in the printing and packaging industry.

Virginie Bolli, senior manager, Integrity & Compliance at Flint Group, comments, “We are delighted that even with tougher criteria in 2024, we have not only maintained our Silver rating but have increased our score. Not only that, EcoVadis identifies us as the ink and coatings category leader in greenhouse gas management system. This accomplishment is testament to the ongoing efforts of our global team, and our PRISM approach to sustainability, which is instrumental in guiding continuous improvement.”

Bolli concludes, “Our structured approach to sustainability involves clear policies, tangible actions, comprehensive reporting, and measurable improvement. We are confident in our belief that the ongoing dedication and collaboration of our talented and committed team will drive further improvements in our rating and score.”
