Condat receives EcoVadis ‘Platinum’ medal 17 February 2022

Condat, an international specialist in industrial lubricants, has obtained the ‘Platinum’ level recognition on the EcoVadis Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) platform.

Initiated several decades ago, Condat’s responsible commitment is based on one of the Group’s core values – build to last. Guided by this historical value, the company has been pursuing a long-term strategy since 1854 that contributes greatly to its longevity. Condat is thus one of the precursors of the development of industrial lubricants with reduced environmental impact and, launched more than 20 years ago, its first biodegradable lubricants. Anchored in strong human values, the family group is structured around an assertive social policy.

In 2018, Condat went further in its CSR approach by joining the international EcoVadis platform. Its CSR performance is evaluated each year by an independent body according to 21 criteria divided into 4 themes: Environment, HR and Human Rights, Business Ethics and Responsible Purchasing. These CSR assessments are based on authentic evidence and are internationally recognised. Initially silver, Condat progressed until obtaining in October 2021 the ‘Platinum’ level, the highest distinction awarded by EcoVadis.

The company’s objective is to reduce its ecological footprint and guide its organisation towards sustainable value creation that takes into account social and environmental issues. It integrates, among other things, the Sustainable Development Goals at each stage of the life of its products, as evidenced by its unique system of self-evaluation of its eco-designed offer: the Lubriscore®.

The Platinum medal was awarded by EcoVadis to all the subsidiaries of the Condat Group.
