ACCO Brands EMEA improves EcoVadis score and maintains Silver Medal status

Europe’s leading office products manufacturer, ACCO Brands EMEA, has improved its EcoVadis sustainability rating for the third consecutive year while maintaining its Silver Medal status. EcoVadis is the world’s largest and most trusted provider of business sustainability ratings, and the Silver rating places ACCO Brands EMEA in the top 15% of companies globally. The company’s overall score ranks even higher, positioning it within the top 10% of companies in its industry.

EcoVadis provides globally recognised and trusted business sustainability ratings, with a network of over 150,000 rated companies. Helping businesses to improve their sustainability practices, EcoVadis evaluates key indicators across four themes: environmental impact, labour and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement. Based on these indicators, each company receives a sustainability scorecard and rating according to its percentile ranking within its industry.

In the latest assessment cycle, ACCO Brands EMEA achieved notable progress, particularly in the areas of Labour & Human Rights and Ethics, alongside its overall score improvement. This continued advancement demonstrates the company’s commitment to strengthening sustainability performance and delivering measurable progress across all focus areas.

ACCO Brands EMEA was awarded the EcoVadis Silver Medal in April 2026, marking another year of consistent improvement and reinforcing its position among leading performers in sustainability. This builds on previous progress and highlights the company’s ongoing dedication to reducing environmental impact and supporting responsible business practices.

The ACCO Brands President International, Ard-Jen Spijkervet, commented: “Together, we are helping to build a more responsible business while contributing to a lower impact on people and the planet-something we can all Feel Good about.”

This independent assessment confirms that ACCO Brands EMEA is making steady progress against its sustainability goals while continuing to build a more responsible business that contributes to a lower impact on people and the planet.
