In July 2026 CBES was awarded an EcoVadis Gold rating for sustainability, placing us in the top 5% of companies assessed worldwide and moving up from the Silver rating we held earlier in the year. EcoVadis rates companies on four themes: environment, labour and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement.
The rating reflects work across all five pillars of our social value framework, from our SBTi-approved target of Net Zero by 2040 to our Supplier Code of Conduct and the training and development of our people. For clients, it's independent evidence of how we manage sustainability across our operations and supply chain.
