Epson has earned a platinum rating for sustainability from EcoVadis, which reflects the company’s ongoing commitment and notable improvements towards sustainable growth in the past year.

The platinum rating ranks Epson in the top one per cent of companies in its industry, particularly excelling in the fields of the environment, as well as labour and human rights.

Epson is committed to becoming carbon negative and underground-resource free by 2050, and has made a number of measurable commitments related to sustainability and community impact.

Focused on solving societal issues, it publishes details about its environmental initiatives, the creation of social value, corporate governance, and other CSR activities in its website and Integrated Report.

Epson Australia recently released its inaugural Sustainability Impact Report, the first-ever documented step that truly highlights and details the company’s continued commitment to driving sustainable progress across Australia and New Zealand.

The report showcases and details the company’s dedication to operating responsibly within the earth’s limits, while simultaneously fostering positive relationships with people and communities, and striving for continuous improvement across industries.
