Sanitary technology specialist, Geberit, is recognised for its commitment to sustainability. The company was named as one of the top ten most sustainable companies in the world in a recent study by Toronto-based media company, Corporate Knights.
Corporate Knights collected data on 3000 global public companies and evaluated them according to 11 different metrics, including energy productivity, waste productivity, CEO-to-average-worker pay ratio and transparency.
This first-ever ranking of the world’s 100 most sustainable companies was released in Davos at the World Economic Forum in January and Geberit was the only plumbing manufacturer to be included in the top ten.
