Konecranes achieved first-ever Platinum rating from EcoVadis for its sustainability efforts

Konecranes’ sustainability work has been rewarded with a Platinum rating from EcoVadis. This is the first time it has been ranked in the highest tier of the business sustainability platform. The improved overall score puts Konecranes in the top 1% of 150,000 rated companies globally.

Konecranes improved in all measured areas: environment, labor and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement.  The overall sustainability performance is on advanced level with a score of 84/100 (78 in 2024) with outstanding performance in ethics and sustainable procurement, and advanced-level performance in environment and labor and human rights.

Reflecting the successful execution of the sustainability agenda

The Platinum rating from EcoVadis reflects the successful ongoing execution of the company’s sustainability agenda and the quality of its sustainability management system measured through three pillars: Policies, actions and results. EcoVadis’ evidence-based assessment covers a broad range of non-financial management system impacts and sustainability performance. Prior to 2025, Konecranes received a Gold rating for four consecutive years.

“This milestone is the result of excellent work across the entire company and reflects the steady and positive progress we have made in delivering on our sustainability commitments. The execution of our sustainability agenda continues, and ratings like EcoVadis are increasingly important as they are used by our customers, for example, when choosing equipment and service partners,” said Marko Tulokas, President and CEO, Konecranes.

Leader-level carbon rating

EcoVadis has also recently launched a separate, new, Carbon rating, where Konecranes received the best, i.e. Leader-level rating referring to a strong greenhouse gas management system and best-in-class decarbonization commitments, actions and reporting capabilities. 

Konecranes' sustainability agenda

Konecranes has distilled the material aspects of its operations into four commitments for sustainability: we enable a decarbonized and circular world; we deliver safe and secure material handling solutions; we create a fair, inclusive, diverse and engaging working environment; and we expect the highest ethical standards of ourselves and our business partners. The company has set ambitious targets for all four areas, and regularly monitors and reports its progress towards meeting those commitments.
