India: Astec LifeSciences Awarded EcoVadis Gold Medal for Exceptional Sustainability and ESG Performance
雅达生命科学有限公司, a subsidiary of Godrej Agrovet Limited, and a trusted manufacturer of high-quality agrochemicals, active ingredients and pharmaceutical intermediates, has been awarded the EcoVadis Gold Medal. Placing it among the top 5% of companies globally assessed for sustainability and Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) performance, the company received Bronze in 2024. The certification reinforces company’s value proposition of being a reliable manufacturing partner to global customers.
EcoVadis is one of the world’s widely recognized and trusted sustainability ratings platforms. With 150,000+ rated companies across 185+ countries and 250+ industries, it provides an evaluation of how effectively the group has embedded key sustainability principles into its operations and policies.
Commenting on the achievement, Burjis Godrej, Executive Director, Godrej Agrovet Limited and MD, Astec LifeSciences Limited, said, “Guided by the Godrej Industries Group’s philosophy of putting people and the planet first, sustainability and strong governance are at the core of how we define long-term value creation at Astec LifeSciences. Our persistence in improvising with feedback from past EcoVadis audits revalidates that ESG is core to the overall steering of the business. For us, ESG is not a compliance exercise but a strategic lens through which we engage with stakeholders, manage risk and build resilient, future-ready businesses that contribute positively to the wider ecosystem. We remain committed to integrity and creating long-term value for stakeholders, the communities we engage with, and the environment.”
The recognition comes at a time when companies across the sector are strengthening ESG and governance frameworks to meet rising expectations from regulators, rating agencies and financial institutions thereby driving greater transparency, reduced environmental impact across supply chains, improved carbon and ecological footprints.
