Alba soars to new high with top sustainability rating
MANAMA, May 7, 2024
Alba, one of the world’s largest aluminium smelters, has achieved the pinnacle of sustainability recognition – the EcoVadis Platinum Rating.
This distinction from EcoVadis, a world-renowned provider of business sustainability assessments, places Alba among the elite 1% of companies evaluated worldwide.
This marks the culmination of Alba's unwavering commitment to environmental stewardship. Just three years ago, Alba embarked on this journey with a Bronze Rating, followed by a Silver Rating in 2023. This continuous improvement demonstrates a deep-rooted sustainability strategy driving positive change.
“We are incredibly honoured to receive the EcoVadis Platinum Rating,” said Alba's Chief Executive Officer, Ali Al Baqali.
“This recognition serves as a powerful validation of our relentless pursuit of sustainable practices. Environmental and social impact are paramount to our growth strategy, and we remain firm in our mission to be an eco-friendly smelter, contributing to a greener Bahrain and a more sustainable world," he stated.
Further, to celebrate Alba’s achievement, EcoVadis will plant a tree through their partnership with One Tree Planted – an environmental non-profit tree planting charity that plant trees in countries around the world.-TradeArabia News Service
