INX International secures Bronze EcoVadis medal

INX International Ink Co. has earned its first company-wide honor from EcoVadis, one of the largest and most trusted providers of business sustainability ratings. The organization issued INX a 2025 rated Bronze medal directly related to the overall sustainability performance at all its facilities in Europe and the Americas.

In 2022, the UK subsidiary of INX International was recognized by EcoVadis with a Silver medal for sustainability.

Both honors were determined by an EcoVadis program scorecard that evaluates how well a company has integrated sustainability principles into its business. Since creating a global network database, EcoVadis has accessed the sustainability of over 100,000 rated companies in over 175 countries, representing 200 industry categories.

For more than two decades, INX and its parent company, Sakata INX, have exhibited a commitment to sustainability and a circular economy through new product development, capital investment programs and social responsibility.

INX introduced a Coloring a Safe and Sustainable Future model in 2020 and prepares a Corporate Sustainability report annually.

‘The EcoVadis program is based on existing environmental, social and governance policies, quantifiable performance data and auditing documentation. It focuses on four main themes: Environment, Labor and Human Rights, Ethics and Sustainable Procurement,’ said Peter Paul Obijaju, INX director of ESG. ‘The impact of an EcoVadis medal is significant in several ways. It signals credible, third-party validation of INX’s commitment to sustainability and speaks volumes about our reputation.

‘The assessment process required documentation and performance data, so the transparency and accountability visibly reinforces our continuous improvement and public accountability methods. EcoVadis also aligns with global standards, supporting INX’s intentions, which are serious in terms of meeting international sustainability benchmarks.’
