Detection Technology, a prominent player in the X-ray detector market, has been awarded the EcoVadis Bronze Medal on its first attempt, securing a notable score of 63 points.
This accomplishment reflects the company’s strong initial ranking in environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance and marks a significant milestone in its ongoing dedication to sustainable business practices.
Bronze-Level Recognition
The bronze-level recognition places Detection Technology among the top 35% of all companies assessed worldwide by EcoVadis over the past year.
This achievement demonstrates the company's above-average performance in sustainability compared to 63% of other companies evaluated in the same timeframe.
“Most first-time companies score around 48 points, and only about 3% surpass the advanced 65-point level—a threshold we came very close to with our strong debut score of 63 points. On average, companies outperform the 63-point level on their fourth rating. Detection Technology’s Bronze Medal on its first attempt is truly exceptional,” said Kai Utela, Vice President of Operations at Detection Technology.
