Our commitment to transparency
We use third parties to provide an impartial and thorough assessment of our sustainability practices and claims, allowing us to build trust amongst our stakeholders.
Sustainability Report Assurance
As a business we pride ourselves on being open and transparent about our performance. As part of this commitment, our annual sustainability report is independently assured to the internationally-recognized AA1000 standard to ensure it is evidence-based and accurate.
Independently Certified Sites
Our sites are independently certified to comply with a range of national and international standards on quality, safety, the environment, energy, good manufacturing practice and sustainable sourcing. Eight of our 13 manufacturing facilities are now ISO 14001 certified.
- CDP
- EcoVadis
Each year, we voluntarily participate in the CDP Supply Chain Disclosure Program, the world’s largest repository of self-reported climate change and water risk data. This initiative enables customers and investors to assess risks and make informed decisions that contribute to a more sustainable future.
In 2024, we achieved:
- Climate Overall Score: B Management Level
- Water Security Overall Score: B Management Level
This reflects our commitment to strong environmental practices across our global operations and highlights the year-on-year targeted actions we take to manage climate and water-related challenges. These assessments benchmark Innospec’s performance above sector, regional and global averages.
For Climate, we were pleased to score an ‘A: Leadership’ for subcategories ‘governance, risk and opportunity disclosure’, ‘scope 3 emissions’ and ’emissions reduction initiatives’. We also scored ‘A: Leadership’ for ‘governance, risk and opportunity disclosure’ and ‘water pollution management procedures’, in the water security assessment subcategories.
