We are thrilled to announce that Skymark Packaging International Ltd has been awarded the Silver EcoVadis Medal, a significant recognition in the field of corporate sustainability. The EcoVadis Medal is not just a badge but a testament to a company’s commitment to ethical, environmental, and social standards. It serves as a benchmark, demonstrating our dedication compared to other companies in the EcoVadis database. While the medal is not an endorsement of our products or services, it does signify our positive intent and efforts in improving sustainability management performance.
