LifeMade Products Advances to EcoVadis Silver Sustainability Rating in 2025

LifeMade Products, a foodservice packaging subsidiary of US manufacturer Jadex Inc., announced it has earned a Silver Medal sustainability rating from EcoVadis for 2025, advancing from the Bronze Medal it received in 2024. The company's overall EcoVadis score increased from 63 to 76, placing it in the 93rd percentile of assessed companies globally.

EcoVadis assesses companies across four key categories — Environment, Ethics, Labor and Human Rights, and Procurement — and has evaluated more than 150,000 companies worldwide since its founding in 2007. Medal status is earned by roughly half of all assessed companies, with Silver placing a company in the top 15%. LifeMade's advancement from the 80th to the 93rd percentile in a single year reflects substantive improvements across the EcoVadis assessment dimensions rather than marginal score gains.

LifeMade's product portfolio includes traditional and certified compostable tableware and foodservice packaging, with compostable products carrying TUV Austria OK HOME and BPI Commercially Compostable certifications. The company's sustainability positioning in the compostable packaging segment aligns with growing demand from foodservice operators and retailers seeking to reduce single-use plastic waste. EcoVadis ratings are widely used by corporate procurement teams as a screening and monitoring tool for supply chain sustainability performance across sectors including food and packaging.

For LifeMade's parent company Jadex Inc., the Silver rating advances the group's profile with sustainability-conscious customers and supports commercial relationships with buyers requiring demonstrated supply chain ESG credentials. The EcoVadis rating framework is increasingly embedded in European procurement requirements under emerging supply chain due diligence standards, giving Silver-rated suppliers a competitive advantage in markets where customers must demonstrate oversight of supplier sustainability practices. Companies in India's packaging sector are among those monitoring EcoVadis adoption as a market access consideration.

Key figure — EcoVadis score increased from 63 to 76; percentile rank rose from 80th to 93rd
