In July 2025, the KANSAI HELIOS site in Düren, Germany, was awarded the EcoVadis Bronze Medal for its commitment to sustainability, as part of the globally recognized ESG rating system. By achieving the Bronze level, we rank among the top 35% of companies worldwide that have actively pursued responsible business practices over the past twelve months. This recognition marks an important milestone on our path toward sustainable and responsible operations. At the same time, it motivates us to further optimize our processes and strengthen our impact across the entire value chain. We extend our sincere thanks to all employees whose dedication made this achievement possible.

Our sustainability strategy in Düren is embedded in the KANSAI HELIOS group-wide initiative “We Turn It Green.” This program encourages employees and partners to actively contribute to improving our environmental performance. KANSAI HELIOS is committed to ambitious goals, including reducing greenhouse gas emissions, promoting resource-efficient production, and ensuring transparent communication of our environmental policies.

The EcoVadis assessment was conducted through our parent company, KANSAI HELIOS Services Germany GmbH, which manages key business processes for our organization and plays an integral role at the site in Düren. The evaluation was based on 21 internationally recognized criteria, providing a transparent overview of our sustainability performance.
