ELPRO Recognized for Excellence in Corporate Social Responsibility
ELPRO has once again been awarded the EcoVadis Silver Medal for excellence in Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). For the fifth consecutive year, the Swiss company has earned the recognized certificate, which is issued by one of the world’s most trusted providers of business sustainability ratings, intelligence and collaborative performance improvement tools for global supply chains.
The last few years have shown us that sustainable management should not be an empty phrase. We are therefore particularly pleased that we have once again been able to achieve an outstanding sustainability performance in the areas of 'Ethics' and 'Sustainable Procurement.
