Gerhardshofen, November 15, 2022 - At the very first attempt, the German company WEILBURGER Graphics GmbH, an internationally renowned manufacturer of varnishes, inks and adhesives for the graphic arts industry, has been awarded the EcoVadis Silver Medal. The company, which had its CSR activities rated by EcoVadis for the first time, achieved a very good result for an initial assessment with 63/100 percentage points and an 86th percentile ranking.

Commitment to responsible business and sustainable solutions plays an important role at WEILBURGER Graphics, as Günter Korbacher, Managing Director of WEILBURGER Graphics GmbH, confirms: "Our entire team is committed to a more sustainable future for customers, companies and local communities at the same time. For us, sustainability means continuously improving our products and processes to further reduce energy consumption, waste and material costs in the long term." Günter Korbacher continued, " Of course, we are very pleased to have achieved the EcoVadis silver medal and the 86th percentile rank at the very first attempt, which means that we received a higher score than 86 percent of all companies evaluated by EcoVadis. Especially for a chemical company like us, this is a very good start and an excellent basis for achieving the EcoVadis gold standard in the next step by continuously evaluating the assessment results and making further optimizations based on their achievement."
