Alba's sustainability excellence recognised with coveted 'Platinum' rating by EcoVadis

Aluminium Bahrain B.S.C., the first aluminium smelter in the Middle East, has reportedly achieved a Platinum rating from EcoVadis, the largest independent provider of business sustainability ratings. This prestigious grade places Alba among the 1 per cent of companies assessed globally in the industry.

This remarkable accomplishment also marks Alba's commitment towards sustainability. In 2021, Alba received its first EcoVadis Bronze rating, and two years later, it achieved a Silver Rating. Receiving these prestigious gradations back-to-back demonstrates the company's long-term sustainability goals. 

Alba's Chief Executive Officer, Ali Al Baqali, said: "We are incredibly honoured to receive the EcoVadis Platinum Rating. This recognition serves as a powerful validation of our relentless pursuit of sustainable practices. Environmental and social impact are paramount to our growth strategy, and we remain firm in our mission to be an eco-friendly smelter, contributing to a greener Bahrain and a more sustainable world."

EcoVadis assesses corporate social responsibility performance based on four pillars – environment, social and human rights, ethics, and responsible purchasing.
