Ricoh announced it has been awarded the highest Platinum rating from EcoVadis, the world’s most trusted provider of business sustainability ratings. Placing Ricoh among the top 1% of companies assessed, this is Ricoh’s first Platinum rating, following 10 consecutive years of Gold ratings from 2014 to 2024.

The EcoVadis assessment evaluates more than 150,000 companies worldwide across 21 sustainability criteria in four core themes: Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement.

This year, Ricoh achieved an overall score of 82 out of 100—an increase of 5 points from last year—with particularly strong recognition in the Environment category, along with notable improvements in the Labor & Human Rights and Ethics categories.
“We are immensely proud of this milestone, which underscores our long-standing commitment to sustainability,” said Mikako Suzuki, corporate officer in charge of ESG and risk management at Ricoh Company, Ltd. “The 2025 Platinum rating is a testament to Ricoh’s active promotion of ESG risk management in our supply chain, including improvements in labor conditions and human rights. It also reflects our ongoing efforts to deepen our environmental policies and targets, expand information disclosure, and advance environmental management.”
