“The EcoVadis Platinum rating is a recognition of our excellent responsibility work, which has been evaluated by an independent institution. The rating helps us outline and track the progress of our sustainable development efforts in relation to our competitors and provides direction for our future development efforts. I would like to warmly thank both our internal and external stakeholders, who have contributed to achieving this excellent rating,” concludes Metsä Tissue CEO Esa Kaikkonen.
Metsä Tissue’s goal is to promote the bio and circular economy by efficiently turning Northern wood into first-class tissue and greaseproof paper products. Our well-known brands are Lambi, Serla, Tento, Mola, Katrin and SAGA.
EcoVadis, which evaluates corporate responsibility internationally, has developed a platform that enables companies to evaluate the performance of their suppliers in environmental and social responsibility worldwide. There are four criteria: environment, human rights and labour practices, business ethics and sustainable procurement.
