Plant-Ex Ingredients Ltd is pleased to announce the completion of its first EcoVadis sustainability assessment, marking an important milestone in Plant-Ex’s ongoing commitment to sustainability, environmental responsibility, and ethical business practices across its operations. This marks a significant step in the company’s long-term ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) journey.
This independent evaluation represents an important milestone in Plant-Ex’s ambition to adopt more structured ESG practices. As a trusted global innovator in natural ingredients, Plant-Ex is committed to ensuring its operations reflect the same high standards of quality, traceability, and compliance that define its products.
A Commitment to Continuous Improvement
Giles Drewett, CEO, said:
“Our first formal assessment marks the starting point of a long-term commitment to continuous improvement. We are proud of the strong foundations already in place and welcome the insights and recommendations. This assessment allows us to move forward with greater clarity and ambition, and we see it as an opportunity to grow together with our customers and supply partners.”
The report highlights early strengths across resource management, workforce wellbeing, health and safety, and responsible sourcing. These findings align with Plant-Ex’s broader ESG strategy, supported by continuous investment in innovation, infrastructure, and people. Recent developments, such as the acquisition of Aromacolors and the appointment of a Global Technical Director, demonstrate this commitment to scaling responsibly while maintaining operational excellence.
Plant-Ex has already taken proactive steps to embed ESG more deeply into its operations, from setting measurable objectives to encouraging cross-functional collaboration on improvement areas identified by EcoVadis.
Giles Drewett continued:
“This initial assessment forms part of a broader ESG roadmap, which includes greater transparency, structured reporting, and continued investment in sustainable innovation.”
