Verel earns EcoVadis Silver Medal: in the 93rd global percentile

Choosing a contract manufacturing partner today also means evaluating how that partner manages environmental impact, working conditions, and supply chain transparency. It's no longer an optional extra: it's a concrete selection criterion for brands and buyers operating in markets increasingly focused on ESG standards.

In this context, Verel has completed the EcoVadis assessment process and obtained the Silver Medal, ranking in the 93rd percentile globally.

A structured process, not a superficial certification

EcoVadis is one of the most recognized international platforms for evaluating corporate sustainability performance. The analysis covers four main areas: Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement.

The result achieved by Verel is not the outcome of a generic self-assessment, but of rigorous work analyzing internal processes, company policies, and supply chain management. This approach is consistent with the industrial model Verel applies to cosmetic production projects: method, documentation, traceability.

What it means for brands and B2B clients

For a product manager, purchasing manager, or private label manager, working with a third-party manufacturer that has a verified EcoVadis scorecard brings direct benefits:

  • Streamlining the supplier qualification process: EcoVadis data is standardized and internationally recognized, reducing due diligence times.
  • Support for internal ESG requirements: Many companies today need to report on the sustainability of their supply chain. A partner with an EcoVadis Silver Medal concretely contributes to these objectives.
  • Documentation reliability: The same care with which Verel manages sustainability processes is reflected in the management of formula development, industrialization, production, and regulatory support.

The next goal: the Gold Medal

A global 93rd percentile ranking is a significant milestone, but the journey continues. The stated goal is to achieve the EcoVadis Gold Medal, further strengthening the standards already met and introducing new measures throughout the entire production chain.

A clear signal for those seeking a contract manufacturing cosmetics partner focused not only on the quality of the finished product, but also on the robustness of the industrial model that generates it.
