SINGAPORE, Dec. 16, 2021 /CNW/ -- Interplex, a leading provider of customized connectors, high precision and mechanical products solutions, has been awarded a Platinum Medal from EcoVadis, the world's largest and most trusted provider of business sustainability ratings. The award is the highest recognition of a company for sustainability and positions Interplex in the top one per cent of companies assessed globally.

EcoVadis has created a global network of more than 75,000 rated companies. The organization's sustainability scorecards provide detailed insight into environmental, social, and ethical risks across more than 200 purchasing categories and over 160 countries. The objective of the EcoVadis assessment is to assess the quality of a company's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) management system.

Under the assessment, EcoVadis focuses on four different themes - Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement - in the management layers of policies, actions, and reporting on results. Several management indicators are assessed within these layers, including policies, endorsements, measures, certifications, coverage (deployment of actions), reporting, and 360° watch findings.

Overall, Interplex scored 74 out of 100, placing Interplex in the "Advanced Category" and obtained an "Outstanding" score of 90/100 in the environment category following a thorough audit of each management indicator.

"We are honored to be awarded the EcoVadis Platinum award. It is a fantastic recognition of our commitment to sustainability and is a great validation that we are on the right path toward increasing our positive societal impact," comments Interplex CEO.
