“We’re pleased and proud to have received a Platinum rating again this year. Despite many new questions, we managed to exceed the requirements of a Platinum rating and improved our results from last year. We’ve again demonstrated that we have an advanced sustainability management system that covers all the four themes addressed by EcoVadis and thus provides us an excellent foundation for further development of our sustainability work. I wish to express my warmest thanks to our Metsä Tissue team and all our stakeholders, who have contributed to the achievement of this excellent result,” says Esa Kaikkonen, Metsä Tissue’s CEO.
