Trajectory of Growth and Improvement
Silicon Labs joined the EcoVadis program in 2021, ranking in the top 35 percent of companies. Since that time, the company has implemented new sustainability programs and data collection processes and made significant improvements in public ESG disclosures. Silicon Labs teams and sustainability consultants came together in a multiyear effort to improve those scores, and the results are acknowledged by the improved Ecovadis and other rater scores in 2024.
EcoVadis measures across four categories: Environment, Labor and Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. Silicon Labs improved their scores across all four categories, and the company scored highest in the Environment metric, with 90 out of 100.
