HANGZHOU, China — Following its own EcoVadis Silver Medal achievement and previous support for a client in obtaining an EcoVadis Platinum Medal, REACH24H has once again delivered strong results in sustainability consulting by helping a chemical enterprise achieve an EcoVadis Gold Medal, with a total score of 80/100 and ranking among the top 5% of assessed companies worldwide.
This achievement reflects the company's commitment to strengthening its sustainability management practices and demonstrates REACH24H's practical capabilities in providing comprehensive sustainability solutions tailored to business needs.
Strong Performance Across Four Sustainability Themes
The client, a chemical products enterprise with extensive industry experience, actively pursued improvements in sustainability management in response to increasingly stringent green requirements across global supply chains.
With REACH24H's comprehensive support throughout the assessment preparation process, the company achieved outstanding performance across all four EcoVadis assessment themes:
| Sustainability Theme | Score |
|---|---|
| Environment | 85/100 |
| Labor & Human Rights | 82/100 |
| Ethics | 72/100 |
| Sustainable Procurement | 72/100 |
With balanced improvements across all assessment areas, the company ultimately exceeded 95% of companies evaluated by EcoVadis and successfully obtained the Gold Medal recognition.
From Assessment Preparation to Systematic Sustainability Improvement
Rather than focusing solely on completing assessment requirements, REACH24H worked closely with the company to establish a practical sustainability management framework aligned with international standards, regulatory expectations, and customer requirements.
Based on the company's existing operational conditions, REACH24H supported the development of a complete management cycle covering policies, actions, and results, helping transform sustainability practices into measurable and verifiable outcomes.
Key improvement areas included:
Comprehensive Sustainability Gap Assessment
REACH24H conducted an in-depth review of the company's existing practices across environmental management, labor and human rights, business ethics, and sustainable procurement, while benchmarking against international regulations and expectations from global customers.
Improvement of Sustainability Policies and Management Procedures
The company was supported in optimizing internal policies, defining responsibilities, and improving management processes to ensure clearer accountability and effective implementation.
Strengthening Evidence Management and Documentation
REACH24H guided the company in establishing systematic evidence records, including employee training records, grievance mechanisms, supplier assessment documents, and management records, ensuring that sustainability practices could be clearly demonstrated during the EcoVadis evaluation.
Optimization of Assessment Materials Based on EcoVadis Methodology
Leveraging its understanding of EcoVadis evaluation criteria and documentation requirements, REACH24H helped organize sustainability-related information and ensure that the company's actual management achievements were accurately and effectively presented.
Through this process, the company not only achieved a higher EcoVadis score but also advanced from a reactive approach toward a more proactive and structured sustainability management model.
Practical Value Beyond the Gold Medal
During the project, REACH24H developed an improvement roadmap based on the company's current development stage and available resources. Instead of requiring immediate implementation of all sustainability initiatives, the project focused on areas that could generate practical value while aligning with EcoVadis evaluation principles.
Developing the Company's First ESG Report
With REACH24H's technical guidance, the company completed and published its first ESG report, systematically organizing its environmental, social, and governance practices and performance data.
The report became a key supporting document for the EcoVadis assessment and provided management with a clearer overview of the company's sustainability performance.
Transforming Existing Practices into Recognizable Sustainability Evidence
Although the company had already established certain sustainability practices, some management measures lacked systematic documentation and process integration.
REACH24H supported the company in developing and improving relevant policies and procedures, helping transform existing practices into structured evidence chains that could be effectively demonstrated during sustainability assessments.
Enhancing Employee Engagement and Internal Sustainability Culture
During the management improvement process, the company also strengthened employee participation through initiatives such as improving grievance channels, organizing internal training, and establishing employee suggestion mechanisms.
These efforts contributed not only to EcoVadis performance improvement but also to greater employee engagement and organizational development.
