We are proud to announce that Proenfar, a member of the Weener Plastics (WP) group in Colombia, has been awarded a Platinum rating by EcoVadis. This is the highest rating for sustainable leadership awarded by the leading evaluation company EcoVadis, who have clearly recognized Proenfar's long-term commitment to sustainability and corporate social responsibility. For the past four years, Proenfar has received the EcoVadis silver medal every year. The company has now directly moved to receive its first Platinum medal.

A high-profile project was a renewable energy program that includes solar panels at the Tocancipá plant. In addition, social initiatives with local communities, such as the "María es mi Madre" Community Kitchen Program, and an impeccable Social Responsibility (SR) audit under the 4-pillar SMETA standard, contributed to this successful achievement. Other highlights can be found in the field of material and product innovations, such as ongoing research into PCR and weight reduction of products.

This recognition comes at a crucial time when doing the right thing for our employees, customers, and the planet is more important than ever. WP is fully committed to driving sustainable leadership and playing an active role in supporting the transformation towards a circular economy. WP's progress in its sustainability and corporate social responsibility goals and ambitions is communicated to stakeholders in the WP annual report, which can be downloaded from the website.
