IMCD Earns Upgraded ESG Ratings from ISS ESG and Sustainalytics

Improvements reflect continued progress on emissions, transparency and ESG risk management.

IMCD N.V. has received improved ratings from two leading rating agencies: ISS ESG and Sustainalytics. These upgrades reflect the company’s ongoing progress across key environmental, social and governance (ESG) areas.

The recognition follows IMCD’s EcoVadis Platinum medal earlier this year. This places the company in the top 1% of all organizations assessed worldwide for sustainability performance.

IMCD’s ESG Corporate Rating from ISS ESG has been raised to B- (from C+), positioning the company above the industry average. The rating reflects strong performance in managing ESG-related risks and opportunities, transparency in public disclosures and the implementation of responsible business practices.

Sustainalytics has reduced IMCD’s ESG Risk Rating from 12.6 to 11.6. This maintains IMCD’s status in the “low risk” category. Sustainalytics cited strong management of material ESG issues and a best-practice approach to disclosure. This supports long-term accountability to investors and stakeholders.

“These upgrades are the result of clear direction and dedicated work across teams and functions,” says Cecile Westerhuis, group director, sustainability. “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.”
