ADVANCION AWARDED ECOVADIS GOLD MEDAL FOR 2025 SUSTAINABILITY PERFORMANCE

BUFFALO GROVE, Ill., Aug. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Advancion Corporation ("Advancion" or "Company"), a global leader in specialty ingredients serving the life sciences, home and personal care, and broader consumer and industrial markets, was recently awarded an EcoVadis Gold Medal for its 2025 sustainability performance. This year marks Advancion's fifth consecutive—and seventh overall—Gold Medal recognition since the Company began participating in the independent EcoVadis assessment in 2017.

With an overall score of 81 out of 100—a six-point improvement over the previous year—Advancion now ranks in the top 2% of companies evaluated globally by EcoVadis in the past 12 months. The Company's 2025 score reflects measurable gains across all four categories evaluated: Environment, Labor and Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement.

"Sustainability is embedded in every part of our business—from reducing our environmental footprint to upholding strong ethical practices and supplier engagement," said Tina Murray, Senior Vice President, Regulatory, Product Stewardship and Quality. "Achieving EcoVadis Gold Medal recognition validates the rigor and transparency of our systems, and it motivates us to keep pushing forward."

"This recognition reaffirms our long-standing commitment to responsible business practices and sustainable growth," said David Neuberger, President and Chief Executive Officer of Advancion. "We're proud of our progress, and this year's award speaks volumes about the dedication of our global team to continuous and measurable improvement. Sustainability is central to our culture and our responsibility as stewards of the industries and communities we serve."

EcoVadis is one of the world's most comprehensive sustainability rating platforms, benchmarking company performance against international standards such as the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the United Nations Global Compact, and ISO 26000. The EcoVadis methodology provides a universal framework for evaluating environmental, social, and ethical practices across global supply chains. Advancion invites its commercial partners to request direct access to its 2025 EcoVadis assessment as part of their supplier evaluation process.
