Orion, a global specialty chemicals company, announced its 2024 sustainability rating from EcoVadis has been raised from Gold to Platinum, the highest possible distinction.

Orion now ranks among the top 1% of the companies assessed by EcoVadis, one of the world’s largest providers of business sustainability ratings. The organization revised Orion’s score from 78% to 82% after reassessing the company’s 2023 performance.

“Achieving the Platinum rating is a huge milestone for Orion considering that just three years ago we were at the Silver level. I want to congratulate our global team for their commitment and dedication,” Orion CEO Corning Painter said. “The assessment methodology is complex and involves numerous factors. We appreciate the rigor and dedication to accuracy that EcoVadis brings to the assessment process.”
