Archroma Awarded EcoVadis Gold Rating For Second Consecutive Year
November 2025 - Archroma, a global leader in specialty chemicals towards sustainable solutions, has been awarded a Gold rating by EcoVadis for the second consecutive year.
This places Archroma in the top 5% of more than 150,000 companies assessed globally across 150 countries and 250 industries.
EcoVadis, the leading provider in business sustainability ratings, evaluates companies against stringent criteria covering environment, labor and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement.
The Gold rating reflects Archroma’s continued progress in integrating sustainability across its operations and value chain.
Rajiv Sharma, CEO, Archroma, said, “As a company built on sustainable innovation, this recognition reflects our ongoing efforts to lead with purpose. Our strategy – from innovations to operational excellence – is centered on delivering measurable impact and long-term value for our customers, communities, and the planet.”
In a further step towards transparent ESG reporting, Archroma has recently completed a double materiality assessment under the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD).
This assessment considers how sustainability risks and opportunities affect Archroma’s business and how our operations impact the environment and society.
The insights gathered will guide the company’s future sustainability strategy and will be publicly disclosed in the FY2025 Sustainability Report.
Rajiv also added, “The double materiality assessment reinforces our commitment to stakeholder engagement, ESG integration, and responsible growth. We will continue to align purpose, innovation, and accountability at every level of the organization.
