EcoVadis provides trusted business sustainability ratings for more than 100,000 organizations representing more than 200 industries. Milliken’s 2023 EcoVadis score, assessed across its specialty chemical, textile, floor covering and healthcare operations, places the company in the top 2% of organizations rated.
“We are committed to making real, positive and tangible impacts on the world around us. Our EcoVadis rating helps translate our work across the value chain,” states Halsey Cook, president and CEO of Milliken & Company.
