Ecovadis Press Release

Agnieszka and all the team at CCS are proud to announce that we have earned an Ecovadis Gold medal. This accolade means that we proudly rank in the top 5% of all Ecovadis-assessed companies, which now number over 100,000.

Other Marketplace Polices and Practices

The Ecovadis methodology is built on international sustainability standards, including the Global Reporting Initiative, the United Nations Global Compact, and the ISO 26000, covering 200+ spend categories and 175+ countries.

They are the world’s largest and most trusted provider of business sustainability ratings. The Ecovadis assessment examines how well a company has integrated sustainability and corporate social responsibility (CSR) principles across four main areas: environment, labour and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement.

This medal is a perfect illustration of CCS’ commitment to sustainable cleaning practices and the measures we have taken to achieve these. We not only prioritise the use of sustainable cleaning solutions and equipment, but we are environmentally conscious at every stage of our supply chain.

An Ecovadis Gold evaluation also demonstrates our devotion to creating an ethical and fair working environment for all our team members across the eight countries we operate in.

CCS are delighted to have achieved this milestone; the Ecovadis Gold medal is concrete evidence of our unwavering dedication to sustainability and responsible business practices now and in the future.


Case Study on Ecovadis Process

Here at CCS have always been concerned about sustainability and ethical business. Since the beginning in the 1960s CCS were continually operating ethically; however, about eight years ago, we had a watershed moment and began thinking about how we could make cleaning more sustainable. CCS have made great strides to improve our cleaning processes and replaced many products and equipment with sustainable alternatives.

We wanted to quantify this and further reinforce our commitment to sustainability and workplace ethics. For us, obtaining an Ecovadis rating was the perfect way to do this.

Ecovadis are the world’s largest and most trusted provider of business sustainability ratings. Their methodology is built on international sustainability standards, including the Global Reporting Initiative, the United Nations Global Compact, and the ISO 26000, covering 200+ spend categories and 175+ countries.

Obtaining an Ecovadis rating was a huge undertaking that required a lot of diligence and dedication to demonstrate how we met the criteria in each area Ecovadis measures. Assessment fell under the following four areas environment, labour and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement.

Our Group Compliance Manager, Agnieszka Jakubczak, led the project, which involved documenting, collating, and submitting vast amounts of data about every aspect of the business. This process affected each department and required tremendous collaboration and data-sharing.

We also created a CSR brochure detailing all of business practices which will soon be available on our website.

After submitting all the information and Ecovadis completing the review we are delighted to have say that CCS have earned a Gold Medal sustainability rating. This accolade means that we proudly rank in the top 5% of all Ecovadis-assessed companies.
