July 25, 2023 – London, UK – Geiger is delighted to announce they have been awarded a platinum rating for their UK location for the second year in a row from EcoVadis’s  2023 sustainability assessment. Geiger UK has maintained its 2022 status and retained its position among the top 1% of more than 100,000 companies rated worldwide by EcoVadis.

EcoVadis is the leading collaborative platform for sharing sustainability data between businesses and the world's most trusted provider for assessing corporate performance in the field of sustainable development.

The assessment itself covers four pillars: Environment, Labour & Human Rights, Ethics and Sustainable Procurement. To receive the very highest rating of Platinum, companies need to score above 75% overall across all pillars. Geiger achieved a score of 82% in their overall assessment, improving on their 2022 score, including a score of 90% in the Environmental pillar, with additional sustainability reporting, advanced sustainability management system and new sustainability certification being positively highlighted.

Geiger is a world leader in their sector of providing branded merchandise solutions, and this award and recognition reaffirms that they are leading the way with environmental and social goals.

Procurement Director, Steve Wickham commented, “We are thrilled to receive a Platinum rating from EcoVadis in this year’s assessment. The result demonstrates our position as a leader in sustainability in our industry and how we are implementing our strategy and moving our sustainability journey from pledge to genuine progress. It’s also a reflection of our on-going commitment to continual improvement and to minimising our environmental footprint as a business.”

Wickham continued with, “We are especially pleased to have achieved a score of 90% on the Environmental pillar as this highlights the dedication of our suppliers, customers, and internal teams to encourage responsible consumption and support positive climate action.”

“This recognition and our huge Environmental score increase, reinforces to our customers and partners that creating value to society is at the heart of our business. We will continue our efforts through our corporate Sustainability Pledge across our internal business and entire global supply chain” added Vicky Kinasz, Managing Director of Geiger International.

Geiger has shown long term commitments to operating sustainably and completed building their new corporate headquarters in Lewiston, ME in 2018. The LEED Gold Certified building is 100% powered by Geiger’s nearly 700-panel solar array.
