Sustainability Star: Orion Scores Top Eco Rating

Orion S. A. has earned a top-tier Platinum rating from EcoVadis for its 2025 performance, placing the company among only a few percent of global firms that achieve this level. The rating covers four key areas: environmental impact, ethical conduct, sustainable sourcing, and labor practices. The company celebrated the honor by highlighting several 2025 milestones. These include launching bio‑circular carbon black grades, boosting energy efficiency at its plants, expanding leadership training, and winning a safety award. The CEO noted that maintaining the Platinum status will be harder next year as EcoVadis raises its standards, but he expressed confidence that Orion’s worldwide team can meet the challenge.In addition to EcoVadis, Orion kept a strong B score from CDP, an organization that tracks environmental performance. The December 2025 assessment praised Orion’s climate‑change mitigation efforts and upgraded its Supplier Engagement score to an A. This improvement reflects the company’s governance, emission targets, scope‑3 management, and supply‑chain collaboration. Overall, Orion’s achievements signal a continued focus on cost‑effective, sustainable carbon black production and long‑term environmental goals.
