ESG performance and supply chain transparency are increasingly relevant factors for companies operating in complex, global value chains. Independent ESG ratings provide a structured framework to assess policies, processes and results across environmental, social, ethical and responsible sourcing practices, based on documented evidence.

Following a project launched with EcoVadis in 2024 to map and manage ESG risks across its supply chain, Aquafil was awarded the EcoVadis Platinum Medal in 2025, placing the Group in the top 1% of more than 150,000 companies assessed worldwide. The improved rating reflects progress in areas including climate and biodiversity risk assessment, supply chain ESG due diligence, sustainability reporting aligned with ESRS standards and gender equality certification.

These topics are further explored in the new episode of The Future is Circular. In this conversation, Giacomo Martino Belluzzo, Group ESG Specialist at Aquafil, discusses how ESG ratings work in practice and their role as tools to support transparency, risk management and continuous improvement across the value chain.
