Case Study: Oxiteno strengthens sustainable procurement with EcoVadis

Oxitento - Customer Case Study

Oxiteno, a Brazilian multinational chemical manufacturer, sought to enhance sustainability across its extensive supply chain. To achieve this, they partnered with the vendor EcoVadis to implement its sustainability ratings platform, aiming to measure and improve the environmental and social practices of their suppliers.

By integrating EcoVadis scorecards into their annual supplier performance assessments with a 30% weighting, Oxiteno incentivized widespread participation. The solution led to a 30-point score increase for Oxiteno itself, earning them a Platinum medal status. The program generated measurable impacts, including significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and water consumption among their suppliers. EcoVadis provided the tools and support necessary to drive this continuous improvement, strengthening Oxiteno's entire value chain.
