How did we reach a Gold medal with our EcoVadis rating?
1. Understanding the methodology and evaluation criteria
EcoVadis is one of the world’s leading CSR rating platforms, designed to assess how companies integrate sustainability and ethical practices into their operations and value chain.
The evaluation is based on four key pillars:
- Environment: energy consumption, carbon emissions, resource management,
- Social & Human Rights: working conditions, diversity, inclusion, employee well-being,
- Ethics: business integrity, anti-corruption practices, transparency,
- Responsible Procurement: supplier assessment and sustainable sourcing practices.
Companies are assessed through three dimensions:
- Policies (commitments and frameworks),
- Actions (implemented initiatives),
- Results (KPIs and performance tracking).
The final score (out of 100) and the ranking percentile determine the medal level (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum), making EcoVadis key for companies aiming to structure and scale their CSR strategy across their ecosystem.
2. The drivers behind our +8 point progress
Our +8 points progression in our 2026 EcoVadis rating reflects a deeper shift toward CSR maturity: the ability to document more rigorously, measure more precisely, and align commitments with verifiable proof.
This is precisely what gives meaning to an EcoVadis rating: not only recognizing performance, but encouraging companies to build long-term substance in their sustainability strategy.
Here are the keypoints that drove our better rating:
- More structured policies across all four EcoVadis pillars (Environment, Ethics, Responsible Procurement, Social & Human Rights), ensuring stronger governance of our CSR commitments.
- More robust environmental reporting, supported by an enhanced carbon assessment conducted with Greenly, integrating a wider range of physical data points.
- Additional compliance certifications through Provigis, reinforcing the transparency, traceability, and reliability of our administrative processes, etc.
💡 While this milestone marks significant progress, it also sets the foundation for the next phase of our roadmap, as we continue to strengthen our impact across the entire lifecycle of electronic devices.
Why is an EcoVadis Gold medal a signal of trust in the circular tech market?
1. What a Top 5% ranking (Gold medal) really means for Dipli and its partners
Dipli ranks in the 97th percentile, meaning our score of 82/100 is equal to or higher than that of 97% of all companies in our sector assessed by EcoVadis over the past 12 months. This places us among the top 5% of companies in our sector, earning us the Gold medal.
This medal thus goes far beyond a symbolic achievement. It positions Dipli as a trusted and mature player in the circular economy for electronic devices, capable of structuring sustainable practices at scale across the refurbished value chain. It also reflects the quality of our company's sustainability management system and demonstrates a commitment to promoting transparency throughout the value chain.
For our clients and partners, this recognition acts as a powerful trust signal. It demonstrates that Dipli operates with a high level of transparency, compliance, and operational rigor, key criteria when selecting partners in the trade-in and refurbished markets.
💡 In a sector where traceability, data reliability, and environmental impact are critical, such a ranking reduces perceived risk and facilitates long-term collaboration.
2. Strengthening credibility across the refurbished tech value chain
In the refurbished tech value chain, credibility is a key differentiator.
From sourcing devices to redistribution, every step requires robust processes to ensure quality, compliance, and environmental performance. The EcoVadis Gold rating reinforces Dipli’s ability to meet these expectations across the entire value chain.
It also enhances our capacity to collaborate with large organizations, telecom operators, and distributors seeking reliable partners for their trade-in and refurbished programs.
By embedding CSR into our operational model, we contribute to building a more resilient and scalable circular economy in electronics.
💡 Ultimately, the EcoVadis Gold medal is not just a reflection of our current performance: it is a lever to accelerate the adoption of our circular tech solutions, at scale.
