Berger Textiles has received a Platinum medal from EcoVadis recognising the companies consistent work to reduce its environmental impact across its European operations.
The new accolade puts Berger Textiles in the top 1% of companies. Speaking about the latest award company CEO, Alessandro Lanfranconi, said: “We’re incredibly proud to receive the EcoVadis Platinum certification, which recognises the efforts we’ve made to integrate sustainability into every decision, alongside product performance.
“As highlighted in our sustainability manifesto, this goes beyond environmental considerations.
“People are also a key pillar of this strategy, which is why we’ve made sustainability part of how we work, source, produce, and deliver our fabrics.
“It reinforces our conviction that performance and responsibility go hand-in-hand, and we’re proud to offer textile solutions that not only meet their high-performance demands but also contribute to a more sustainable future.”
The company was among the first in the industry to adopt recycled PET fabrics, launching its EVO range containing sustainable alternatives to its most popular textiles.
At this year’s FESPA Global Print Expo, the company has intensified this commitment by making some of its current portfolio only available as their EVO version.
It has also achieved other certifications including GRS, OEKO-TEX, and GOTS. Three years ago, the company introduced its ‘we.respect’ sustainability manifesto, which unified the company’s sustainability efforts into a single, documented strategy, highlighting the discipline as a central part of how the business operates.
