EcoVadis Silver Medal

Nedstar is proud to hold a Silver Medal from EcoVadis, ranking among the top 10% of companies worldwide for sustainability. This respected international recognition reflects our commitment to ethical sourcing, responsible business practices, and environmental care in the global ethanol industry.

What is EcoVadis?

EcoVadis is the world’s most trusted provider of business sustainability ratings. Their independent assessment scores businesses across four key areas: Environment, Labour & Human Rights, Ethics and Sustainable Procurement. The platform evaluates over 150,000 companies globally based on international standards, including the UN Global Compact, ISO 26000 and the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI).

What does it mean to have a Silver Medal?

Receiving a Silver EcoVadis Medal confirms that our sustainable ethanol sourcing, supplier partnerships, and operational practices meet rigorous international benchmarks. It also strengthens our promise to be a responsible and transparent business partner in a traditionally polluting industry.

At Nedstar, sustainability is embedded in every part of our business. From the beginning, we’ve aimed to challenge the conservative ethanol industry. We do this by sourcing high-quality, ethical products, working with transparent partnerships, and enforcing supplier codes of conduct. We also reduce CO₂ emissions through smarter logistics and support circular solutions like fusel oil and second-generation ethanol, made from waste products.

“Sustainable and ethical business practices should be the norm. At Nedstar, they’re our starting point.” 

- Steven van Wassenaer, Director
