Ring Container Technologies, a leader in the plastic container manufacturing industry, today announced that it has maintained its third platinum medal sustainability rating from EcoVadis for 2026. This top-tier designation recognizes Ring as being in the top 1% of companies worldwide assessed by EcoVadis, the leading platform for environmental, social, and ethical performance ratings across global supply chains.

Ring has demonstrated consistent progress over the past five years, earning silver, gold, and now for the third consecutive year, platinum medals. As an industry leader, Ring offers a 100% recyclable product portfolio based on the Federal Trade Commission Green Guidelines, ensuring materials can be recovered from the waste stream for reuse or manufacturing of new items.

The EcoVadis assessment evaluates a company’s sustainability management system by examining policies, actions, and measurable results across 21 criteria grouped into themes such as Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement.

“This recognition reflects the work we’ve put into doing the right things for our people, our operations, and the environment,” said Brian Smith, President and CEO of Ring Container Technologies. “We remain committed to improving every year and showing what’s possible when a company truly prioritizes sustainability, people development, and leadership.”

Ring’s proprietary patented BarrierGuard® OxygenSmart™ technology, HotLock® with TRIMLITE® technology, and SmartCAN® are 100% recyclable rigid containers that support brands in achieving a “Widely Recyclable” designation by How2Recycle®. In partnership with Operation Clean Sweep® (OCS), Ring is also committed to protecting the environment, as well as preserving water quality and wildlife.

The EcoVadis Business Sustainability Performance Index continues to provide insights into sustainability across global supply chains, analyzing data from more than 125,000 supplier assessments. Ring’s ongoing recognition in this report highlights the company’s leadership in integrating sustainability into core business strategies while advancing environmental stewardship across the industry.
