NewAge Industries, Inc., a leader in fluid transfer systems solutions for the biopharma and industrial markets, has been recognized with a Platinum Medal by EcoVadis, a prestigious global sustainability rating platform. This accolade signifies NewAge's placement in the top 1% of companies evaluated worldwide, marking a significant improvement from its previous Gold rating. The assessment, which scrutinizes 21 sustainability criteria across four key areas—Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement—highlights NewAge's dedication to sustainability and corporate responsibility.
Mary Marcus, NewAge's Chief Executive Officer, attributed this achievement to the company's long-standing commitment to sustainability, initiated nearly two decades ago with the formation of its Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). Marcus emphasized the company's ongoing mission to 'do good' and excel, a principle that has guided its operations and innovations in the biopharma and industrial sectors. This recognition not only underscores NewAge's leadership in sustainability but also its potential to influence the industry towards more sustainable practices.
The implications of NewAge's Platinum ranking extend beyond corporate accolades. It sets a benchmark for sustainability in the biopharma and industrial markets, encouraging other companies to elevate their environmental and social governance standards. For customers and suppliers, NewAge's achievement offers assurance of partnering with a company that prioritizes sustainability, potentially influencing purchasing decisions and fostering collaborations aimed at sustainable solutions.
