Weybridge, London, 7 April 2021 – CHEP Europe, the supply chain solutions company, has earned an EcoVadis Platinum Recognition Level, the highest level available, for its sustainability achievements, positioning the company amongst the top 1% of all suppliers evaluated globally.

This Platinum Level was awarded to CHEP Europe for its conscientious practices and achievements in areas concerning the Environment, Labour Practices, Human Rights, Ethics and Sustainable Procurement.

EcoVadis’ methodology is built on international Corporate Social Responsibility standards including the Global Reporting Initiative, the United Nations Global Compact and the ISO 26000. It covers 198 categories and assesses 60,000 companies across 155 countries.

CHEP is part of the Brambles Group, a supply chain solutions business based on a ‘share and reuse’ model for its delivery of pallets, crates and containers. The company was recently ranked as the second most sustainable company globally by Dow Jones’ magazine Barron’s and included in the 2021 Corporate Knight’s prestigious Global 100 list of the world’s most sustainable corporations. It is also a signatory to the UN’s Global Compact. These recognitions are the result of Brambles’ sustainability goals achieved over the last years, including zero deforestation, zero product waste to landfill and a reduction of 33% of CO2 emissions.

The company recently presented its new sustainability strategy for 2025, which aims at pioneering regenerative supply chains. Iñigo Canalejo, CHEP EMEA Sustainability and Government Affairs Lead explains: “We are extremely proud to receive yet another recognition for our efforts in Sustainability. As pioneers of the circular economy, we’ve always strived to reduce our negative impact, but now we want to take a step further and evolve from doing ‘less bad’ to generating a net-positive impact on the planet and the society”.

CHEP’s 2025 Sustainability targets reflect this new regenerative approach, which is based on a ‘Planet Positive, Business Positive and Communities Positive’ strategy. “Our new regenerative ambition and our commitment to a sustainable future, materialised by our signing of the United Nations Global Compact’s (UNGC) ‘Business Ambition for 1.5ºC Pledge’, will help us to maintain our leadership position in the coming years, to achieve a really positive impact on the planet, society and communities, and ultimately, to create lasting changes in people’s lives”, says Canalejo.
