IMCD N.V. reported improved ESG assessments from ISS ESG and Sustainalytics. ISS ESG upgraded IMCD’s Corporate Rating to B- from C+, placing the company above the industry average. Sustainalytics lowered IMCD’s ESG Risk Rating to 11.6 from 12.6, maintaining a low-risk designation. Earlier this year, IMCD received an EcoVadis Platinum medal.

“These upgrades are the result of clear direction and dedicated work across teams and functions. From our technical laboratories to logistics and commercial operations, every part of the business plays a role in making sustainability real. These ratings confirm that we are on the right track, and that our efforts are both credible and measurable,” said Cecile Westerhuis, group director, sustainability.

ISS ESG scores range from A+ to D. Sustainalytics’ scores range from 0 to 100, with lower scores indicating lower risk.
