Frequentis Achieves Three ESG Milestones in 2026, Including EcoVadis Silver Rating

Curated by: Gert Jan Wolf - Editor-in Chief for The Critical Communications Review

Frequentis continues to strengthen its sustainability performance, having achieved three important ESG milestones in 2026: the improvement of its EcoVadis sustainability rating from Bronze to Silver, official EMAS registration for its Vienna headquarters, and the award of the national certificate for family-friendly working conditions.

"These key achievements demonstrate that sustainability at Frequentis extends beyond environmental performance. It is embedded in how we manage our operations, work with suppliers, and support our employees," says Monika Haselbacher, Chief Operating Officer at Frequentis. "This reflects our commitment to continuous improvement and long-term value creation for customers, employees, investors, and society."

In the EcoVadis assessment, Frequentis achieved a score of 78 out of 100, placing the company among the top 15 per cent of companies assessed worldwide. The result reflects progress across the areas of environment, labour and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement. The rating is increasingly valued by customers, business partners, investors, and other stakeholders.

The official EMAS registration for Frequentis AG, granted following successful external environmental validation, further confirms the company's commitment to responsible environmental management. EMAS, the European Union's Eco-Management and Audit Scheme, is a demanding environmental management instrument aimed at the continuous improvement of environmental performance, supported by verified legal compliance and transparent environmental reporting.

The family-friendly working conditions certificate, 'berufundfamilie', is a quality mark awarded by the Republic of Austria. It confirms that Frequentis AG offers policies and practices that support employees in balancing work and family life, reinforcing and complementing the company's broader commitment to attractive, fair, and responsible working conditions.

While ESG is a shared commitment embedded across the entire organisation and embraced by all teams, a small but highly motivated core team drives these efforts and maximises the impact of ESG initiatives and achievements at Frequentis.
