Making a Material Difference: Collaborating with Suppliers on Sustainability
The winner of the Innovations in Sustainability Award is EcoVadis and Avery Dennison.
Project Description
The commitment to continuous improvement and fostering transparency throughout the supply chain is an integral component of achieving any corporate social responsibility (CSR) vision — and to doing what’s right. That is why Avery Dennison sets high standards and goals for responsible purchasing practices and has partnered with EcoVadis to implement their Sustainability Procurement Program.
Avery Dennison’s responsible purchasing strategy focuses on the critical role supplier relationships and engagement play in upholding the company’s sustainability commitments and vision. Through its collaboration with EcoVadis, Avery Dennison has prioritized CSR performance monitoring and the implementation of structured CSR management systems with its most critical partners, with the aim of reducing impacts and fostering sustainable innovation across the supply chain.
