With its 2026 EcoVadis rating, Groupe SEB reaches a new milestone in its sustainability journey: the company achieved a score of 90 out of 100 points and the prestigious Platinum medal. This represents an increase of eight points compared to 2025, placing the Group among the top 1% of all companies assessed worldwide and reinforcing its leading role in sustainability performance. The Platinum rating is granted at Group level and therefore reflects the full scope of Groupe SEB’s activities, spanning all business units, brands and product categories. This includes the SEB Professional Beverage division with its brands WMF, Schaerer, Curtis, La San Marco and Zummo.
Following consistent progress in recent years, Groupe SEB has regained the Platinum rating. The development reflects a consistent and effective sustainability strategy – even within an increasingly demanding assessment framework.
The 2026 rating demonstrates an exceptional and well-balanced performance across all four EcoVadis assessment pillars:
• Environment: 90/100
• Social & Human Rights: 90/100
• Ethics: 89/100
• Sustainable Procurement: 89/100
This result underlines the maturity and robustness of Groupe SEB’s ESG approach across its entire value chain, from responsible sourcing to ethical business conduct.
As an independent and widely recognized benchmark, EcoVadis enables structured ESG evaluation and continuous improvement across industries. For Groupe SEB, it goes beyond certification: it acts as a strategic steering tool that helps regularly challenge sustainability practices, identify areas for improvement and continuously strengthen action plans. It also allows the Group to measure progress against the highest standards and provides customers, partners, suppliers and investors with an independent reference point for assessing the robustness of its ESG approach. For customers and partners, the Platinum medal provides a clear and internationally recognized benchmark for sustainability performance. At the same time, Groupe SEB further reinforces its role as a strategic partner, working closely with customers to develop sustainable solutions for end consumers that meet evolving ESG expectations and regulatory requirements.
“Our 2026 EcoVadis rating confirms the robustness and maturity of our commitments and the consistent execution of our 2024–2030 CSR roadmap,”, says Ayca Ozol, SEB Professional Beverage Sustainability Manager. “Achieving Platinum status with our highest-ever score strengthens our position as a trusted partner, supporting our customers in reaching their ESG objectives.“
The result reflects not only measurable progress, but a clear long-term commitment: continuously improving sustainability performance while reinforcing reliability, transparency, traceability and alignment with international standards.
