As a sustainable natural rubber franchise, we believe that our actions and achievements will inspire meaningful change in the industry.”

Our sustainability achievements will not be possible without the unwavering support from our partnering NGOs as well as financiers, and we look forward to continued engagement and collaboration in driving positive change in the industry.”
Halcyon Agri’s score reflects the Group’s commitment to the open visibility of sustainability actions. This achievement adds to the list of accolades received over the past six months, including the EcoVadis Gold medal which recognises Halcyon Agri’s responsible conduct in the environment, labour practices, ethics and sustainable procurement. We look forward to further raising our transparency credentials and bolstering industry standards in next year’s assessment.
