ENNOVI's Fifth Platinum Award Sets New Bar for Sustainable Manufacturing

SINGAPORE – February 25, 2026 – In an industry often defined by heavy machinery and complex supply chains, interconnect solutions specialist ENNOVI has solidified its position as a leader in corporate responsibility with the release of its 2024 Sustainability Report. The report highlights a year of exceptional external validation, headlined by the company achieving a prestigious EcoVadis Platinum rating for the fifth consecutive year—a distinction that places it in the top 1% of companies assessed globally.

This consistent high performance, coupled with a Gold recognition at the 10th Asia Sustainability Reporting Awards and strong scores from the global disclosure nonprofit CDP, signals a deep and sustained commitment to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles. The achievements move beyond annual accolades, painting a picture of a company strategically embedding sustainability into its core operational fabric.

"ENNOVI's continued focus on operating responsibly, strengthening transparency and delivering measurable progress across our global operations is a cornerstone of ENNOVI culture," said Stefan Rustler, CEO of ENNOVI. "From climate and energy management to safety, human rights and supplier standards, we are embedding sustainability into how we run our business and support our customers. While our sustainability report is an important marker of this work, it's the dedication of our teams to this goal that we have achieved these honors."

The Architecture of Accountability

What sets ENNOVI's report apart is not just the top-line awards, but the depth and rigor of its disclosures. The 2024 report represents a significant move toward radical transparency, built on a foundation of internationally recognized frameworks including GRI, SASB, and the UN Global Compact. This comprehensive approach is designed to provide stakeholders with a clear, verifiable view of the company's performance.

A cornerstone of this year's announcement is the inclusion of third-party verified emissions data for Scope 1, 2, and 3. In an era of increasing skepticism around corporate climate claims, independent verification lends crucial credibility to ENNOVI's reported 18% reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity. This demonstrates a commitment to data integrity that goes beyond self-reporting and aligns with the highest standards of the GHG Protocol.

Further bolstering its governance framework, the company published its fourth Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) report, analyzing the financial risks and opportunities posed by climate change. Perhaps most notably, the 2024 publication includes ENNOVI’s inaugural human rights report, signaling a formal and public commitment to addressing the social pillar of ESG with the same seriousness as its environmental metrics.

"This year's report reflects a significant step forward in the depth and consistency of our sustainability disclosures," stated Nantha Kumar Chandran, Chief Sustainability Officer at ENNOVI. "With our fourth TCFD report, inaugural human rights report, and third-party verified scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions data, we are strengthening the systems, data quality and governance needed to manage sustainability performance across our global operations."

Benchmarking Leadership in a Demanding Sector

ENNOVI's performance is particularly noteworthy given the complexities of the electro-mechanical engineering and manufacturing sector. The company's CDP scores of 'B' for both Climate Change and Water Security place it firmly in the 'Management' level, indicating it is taking coordinated action on environmental issues. These scores are notably above the reported industry average of 'C' for industrial manufacturing, positioning ENNOVI as a strong performer relative to its peers.

Maintaining an EcoVadis Platinum rating for five years is a testament to a mature and consistently improving sustainability program. The rating assesses performance across four key themes: Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. Achieving Platinum status indicates that ENNOVI has a comprehensive, structured, and proactive sustainability approach, with robust policies and tangible actions that show significant positive impact.

This sustained leadership sets a high benchmark for competitors, demonstrating that elite environmental and social performance is achievable even within energy-intensive industries. It transforms sustainability from a compliance-driven cost center into a competitive advantage that can attract talent, de-risk supply chains, and build lasting brand trust.

A Holistic Strategy in Action

Beyond high-level frameworks and ratings, ENNOVI's report provides tangible evidence of its strategy at work. The company's emissions reduction initiatives are not just targets on a page but are demonstrated through practical case studies in energy efficiency, renewable energy adoption, and process optimization. Despite increased business activity, the company reported a 2.7% decrease in overall energy use in 2023.

Progress in renewable energy is also accelerating. ENNOVI has increased its on-site solar energy generation by 4.8%, with solar photovoltaic systems now installed at 19% of its facilities. These installations generated over 6,000 MWh of clean energy in 2023, contributing to a 9.4% reduction in electricity usage from the grid and moving the company closer to its goal of sourcing 100% renewable electricity by 2040.

This holistic approach extends deeply into its value chain and workforce. The report highlights that 100% of ENNOVI's key suppliers now have sustainability clauses embedded in their contracts. This is backed by a 4% increase in on-site sustainability audits and a 19% increase in suppliers who are ISO 14001-certified for their environmental management systems, showing a clear effort to cascade responsibility through its entire network.

Internally, the company is making significant strides in diversity and inclusion. The report’s finding that women comprise 40% of its global workforce is a standout figure. In a sector where female representation in manufacturing and engineering roles often languishes below 30% and 20% respectively, ENNOVI’s metric suggests a highly successful and intentional effort to foster a more balanced and inclusive workplace culture. This focus on people, from its own employees to those in its supply chain, illustrates a comprehensive vision of sustainability where environmental stewardship and social responsibility are inextricably linked.
