Dublin. The intelligent energy management company Eaton was recognized with the gold medal awarded by EcoVadis, one of the most important corporate sustainability assessment platforms globally. This recognition positions the company within 4% of the approximately 150,000 companies evaluated worldwide.
The EcoVadis rating analyzes the performance of organizations in four key areas: environment, labor and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement. In this context, Eaton stood out for the maturity of its sustainability management and the continuous improvement in its indicators.
"This recognition from EcoVadis confirms the dedication of our teams and the momentum of our sustainability strategy," said Harold Jones, Chief of Staff to the CEO and Chief Sustainability Officer of the company. "For Eaton, sustainability is key to generating long-term value, helping our customers meet their changing energy management needs, while advancing our mission to improve quality of life and protect the environment."
The EcoVadis assessment is based on a thorough analysis of corporate policies, certifications, quantitative data and external audits, in order to measure the ability of companies to manage sustainability-related risks. Eaton has been evaluated for ten consecutive years, remaining in the global top 10% for the last four years and achieving its best result with the gold medal in 2026.
This recognition is in addition to the company's other recent achievements in sustainability. These include its inclusion in first place in the ranking of the 50 most sustainable companies of 2025 prepared by Investor's Business Daily, as well as the "A" rating granted by CDP in climate disclosure. Likewise, Eaton was recently named as one of the most ethical companies in the world by the Ethisphere Institute for the fifteenth time.
