help EcoVadis Sustainability Assessment Platform FAQ
What does EcoVadis actually score in a supplier assessment?
EcoVadis ratings assess four main themes: Environment, Labor and Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. Companies receive a score on a 0 to 100 scale rather than a simple pass or fail.
Is EcoVadis a circular economy guide or a ratings platform?
EcoVadis is primarily a sustainability ratings and supplier assessment platform, not a static guide like an Ellen MacArthur Foundation report. Circularity can appear inside the environmental evidence a company submits.
Why do procurement teams ask suppliers for an EcoVadis medal?
Large buyers use EcoVadis scorecards to compare suppliers across consistent ESG criteria. The platform awards recognition levels such as Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum based on performance rules.
When was EcoVadis founded and where is it based?
EcoVadis was founded in 2007 in Paris by Pierre-Francois Thaler and Frederic Trinel. Its customer base is global, especially among companies managing sustainability risk in supply chains.
