EcoVadis Results
Kemi’s Clients Have Achieved
“Working with Judith was a real accelerator for our EcoVadis assessment.
She quickly understood our business context and translated EcoVadis requirements into what really matters.
Her clear thinking, smart prioritization and hands-on guidance helped us turn sustainability ambitions into concrete actions.
She made the process practical, efficient and results-driven, which directly contributed to a strong EcoVadis outcome.
Her pragmatic way of working made a real difference.

“Judith took time to understand our business, talking with employees at all levels within our business. She was then able to tailor a series of workshops, helping us all to better understand ECOVADIS, and how to ensure we got the most out of ECOVADIS. I would recommend Judith to anyone who is genuinely interested in showing off their company’s commitment to ethics, sustainability and governance.
Judith will provide any company with the expert guidance in ensuring a company demonstrates their commitment in the most efficient way, through the maze of ECOVADIS questionnaires?
Judith has a flexible, creative, and tailored approach to maximising the benefit of the ECOVADIS platform.”
Graham Mansell | Quality, Safety, Health
and Environmental Manager
“I have known Judith for many years; working together in a business context was a first on this occasion. She was an invaluable partner in our sustainability rating journey. From introducing us to the topic and helping us navigate the requirements, to gathering data, conducting internal research, and preparing comprehensive documentation, her support was thorough and well thought out.
We particularly appreciated the internal training sessions, which were clear, practical, and tailored to our needs, helping to embed sustainability knowledge within our organization. Collaboration with our internal departments was smooth, professional, and highly effective.”
Alexander Gresser | Geschäftsführer
“We have been able to rely on Judith Ruppert's experience for several years now, both in the preparation of our sustainability report and in supporting Ecovadis. With her support, we were able to move up from gold to platinum status with Ecovadis and have maintained this status ever since. We have also been able to significantly improve our sustainability reporting. We look forward to a continued long-term collaboration with Judith Ruppert-Zoltowski.”
“We have worked with Judith on our Ecovadis certification and UNGC report. We started the certification process with Judith from scratch and she guided us through the entire process every step of the way. We most appreciated the extremely solution-oriented approach of Judith and with her help, we were able to achieve Ecovadis gold with just one point below Platinum on our first certification. I would recommend working with her 100%.”
“We have worked with Judith on establishing our sustainability management system and EcoVadis assessment. EcoVadis was a new process to us so we appreciated Judith’s direct and focused way to reach our goal. The communication is very open and honest. As a result, we went from 0 to obtaining a silver medal in EcoVadis and would therefore strongly recommend working with Kemi.”
“Kemi Limited, especially Judith Ruppert-Zoltowski, worked with us for several years as a consultant on sustainability topics. Judith provided us with assistance in the EcoVadis assessment, including carbon footprint reporting, policies adjustment, KPI measurement and sustainability reporting. We had an intention to improve our sustainability performance and to make this process transparent for our stakeholders, and Kemi helped us in both directions. Moreover, Judith provided guidelines for possible ways of the future development. We appreciated Judith’s professionalism, support during and even after the reporting period the most. This year we achieved a platinum medal for EcoVadis assessment! We made a comprehensive data collection, that took us 4 months and a lot of effort. Also, for the first time, we prepared our own sustainability report according to the GRI standards. Our input was valued, and now we are in the TOP 1% of all companies rated by EcoVadis on sustainability topics. Our experience with Kemi was very positive and we would strongly recommend services provided by Kemi Limited.”
“Judith has supported the Present Perfect Group with setting up our sustainability management system since 2019. Together we’ve been working on creating our sustainability policies, implementing sustainability measures and a sustainability reporting system. We are particularly proud of our product sustainability evaluation tool with which we can assess and communicate the sustainability impact of all our merchandise products.
Thanks to these efforts we were awarded the Platinum medal in the EcoVadis assessment, which has only been achieved by 1% of our industry peers. Thanks to Judith for supporting us all along the way, without her we could not have done it!”
“Judith provided incredible guidance throughout the whole process, and I highly recommend working with her. We were uncertain at first about how to tackle the certification, but having Judith on board was a relief. She helped us understand the application process, reviewed the documents, provided valuable feedback, and assisted us in putting together our KPI dashboard—a tool we will keep using for years to come. After all our hard work together, we’re excited to announce that we got GOLD! Thank you!”

“After quite a frustrating Ecovadis medal “committed”, coming from Silver status, we reached out to Judith to put us on the right track again. She did a detailed gap analysis for us and worked out an extensive plan of measures. She guided us all the way through, supporting with additional policies, adjustments to our KPI dashboard and finalizing our sustainability reporting with the additionally required information to give the right proof points.
Thanks to these efforts we were finally awarded the Platinum medal in the EcoVadis assessment, which has only been achieved by 1% of our lighting industry companions. Without her support, we would not have been able to reach this result. We highly appreciate Judith’s professionalism, structured project management and the pleasant cooperation and look forward to continue our collaboration in the future. Your Team Trilux!”
“The collaboration with Kemi Sustainability Consulting was a decisive step for us towards sustainability. Judith Ruppert-Zoltowski has an impressive understanding of the Ecovadis requirements and guided us confidently and competently through the complex demands of the assessment system. Even challenges like the limitation on the documents to be submitted, which initially caused us headaches, she handled with calm and foresight.
Thanks to her support, we were not only able to achieve Gold on our first attempt, but also secured Platinum twice in a row – an achievement that would have been unthinkable without her dedication and expertise. We particularly appreciate her availability and the quick, precise responses to our questions. A big thank you for the excellent and collaborative partnership!”

“Canpack has been working with Judith since 2019 on various sustainability projects. Together we’ve been setting up our sustainability policies, our first sustainability report and have implemented a range of sustainability measures. In 2021, we also worked together to determine our carbon emission reduction targets which were subsequently approved by the Science Based Target initiative.
Thanks to Judith’s help we have managed to get our EcoVadis score from Bronze to Platinum and have therefore recommended her to our sister company in the US.”
“We engaged Kemi specifically to help us improve our EcoVadis rating. She helped us to prioritize our activity and provided guidance on how to go about creating and organizing material, focusing on key criteria in order to surpass EcoVadis’ benchmarks. Not only did we achieve a shift from Bronze to Platinum status we also laid the foundation for success into the future with policies, templates and trackers put in place for the journey ahead. We highly recommend working with Kemi!”
