| Westermo Awarded EcoVadis Platinum Medal, Ranking Among the Top 1% of Companies Worldwide |
| Sustainability assessment helps customers evaluate suppliers, manage supply-chain risk and support responsible procurement |
| Västerås, Sweden, 08.09.2026 – Westermo has been awarded an EcoVadis Platinum Medal after achieving a score of 89 out of 100. The result places Westermo among the top 1% of more than 150,000 companies assessed worldwide and provides customers with independent verification of the company’s sustainability performance. EcoVadis assesses companies across four areas: environment, labor and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement. Its ratings are used by organizations around the world to evaluate sustainability performance within their supply chains. "This achievement reflects years of dedicated work across our organization. We have continued to integrate sustainability into the way we operate, develop products, and collaborate with suppliers," said Lena Westerholm, Group head of sustainability. "Most importantly, the result gives our customers independently assessed information that can help them make informed procurement decisions and pursue their own sustainability objectives." The Platinum rating offers clear and independently assessed evidence of Westermo’s responsible business practices. This can support supplier qualification and evaluation, simplify the collection of sustainability information during procurement, and contribute to customers’ own reporting and supply-chain risk management processes. The recognition is particularly relevant for organizations operating critical infrastructure, where long-term supplier reliability, responsible sourcing and transparent business practices are increasingly important procurement considerations. Alongside Westermo’s focus on robust and reliable industrial networking solutions, the assessment gives customers greater transparency when selecting technology partners for long-term infrastructure projects. Westermo’s latest result represents an improvement from its previous silver rating in 2025 to Platinum. It reflects continued efforts to reduce environmental impact, strengthen responsible sourcing and systematically improve sustainability performance across the business. “While we are proud of this recognition, we see it primarily as confirmation that we are moving in the right direction,” added Lena Westerholm. “Sustainability continues to be an integral part of our long-term business strategy and how we create value for our customers”. EcoVadis evaluates companies across 185 countries and 250 industries. Its assessment methodology examines company policies, actions and reported results across the four sustainability themes. |
