SPARTANBURG, S.C., Nov. 10, 2026 /CNW/ -- Milliken & Company, a global manufacturing and material science leader, has earned a Gold rating in the 2026 EcoVadis assessment, marking the fifth consecutive year the company has received the recognition.
The rating applies across Milliken's global operations and businesses. Milliken earned an overall score of 82 out of 100, placing the company in the 95th percentile of organizations assessed by EcoVadis. The company also ranked in the top 1% of its industry for Ethics and Sustainable Procurement.
"Earning an EcoVadis Gold rating for the fifth consecutive year reflects the collective efforts of teams across Milliken," said Halsey Cook, president and CEO at Milliken. "This recognition reinforces our commitment to continually strengthening how we operate and putting responsible business practices into action across our company and helping our customers advance their own goals."

The company's Labor & Human Rights score increased eight points from the previous assessment, reflecting stronger reporting through comprehensive metrics and alignment with recognized reporting standards.
