About EcoVadis, the rating criteria and our results
Sustainability, ethical cooperation and human rights are of high priority to Bürkle! A transparent approach to these issues is very important to us. For this reason, we have opted for an assessment by EcoVadis, which allows you to view our results quickly and transparently.
What is EcoVadis?
