Bangkok, Thailand, December 10, 2025 -- Indorama Ventures Public Company Limited (IVL), a global sustainable chemicals company, has been ranked first globally with a green card in ChemScore 2025, the internationally recognized benchmark developed by ChemSec, assessing the environmental performance and chemical management of the world’s 40 largest chemical companies. The company has consistently found itself in the top three ChemScore companies and scored twice as high on average as the Asia-based companies taken together. The achievement reaffirms Indorama Ventures’ commitment to balancing business resilience with environmental and social responsibility.

ChemScore1 is widely used by global investors, regulatory bodies, and multinational brand owners to evaluate companies across four key pillars: responsible chemical management, development of safer and more sustainable alternatives, transparency and disclosure, and long-term stewardship across the value chain. The ranking was developed by ChemSec, an independent non-profit organization that advocates for substitution of toxic chemicals to safer alternatives. In the 2025 assessment, Indorama Ventures earned 57 out of 100 points and received a green card, including 12/25 in Transparency, 23/25 in Phase-out of Persistent Chemicals, 13/25 in Product Portfolio, and 9/25 in Safer Solutions.

Indorama Ventures is recognized by ChemSec for applying the Substitute It Now (SIN) List to systematically eliminate hazardous substances, accelerate safer alternatives, and expand bio-based and hazard-free recycled feedstocks. This approach places the company ahead of tightening global regulatory requirements, including emerging EU and U.S. restrictions on persistent chemicals, and aligns with rising demand for safer, traceable materials across consumer goods, automotive, health and hygiene, and industrial sectors.

In brief

Indorama Ventures Public Company Limited says it ranked first in ChemSec’s 2025 ChemScore assessment, receiving a green card and 57 out of 100 points. The ranking evaluates environmental performance and chemical management among 40 large chemical companies. The release lists scores in four areas: Transparency, Phase-out of Persistent Chemicals, Product Portfolio, and Safer Solutions. ChemSec recognized the company’s use of its Substitute It Now (SIN) List to identify and phase out hazardous substances, while supporting safer alternatives and bio-based and recycled feedstocks. Indorama Ventures executive Yash Lohia said the result reflects work on health and safety and chemical management. ChemSec’s Sonja Haider cited the company’s approach and information sharing. The release also says the ranking is used by investors and other stakeholders to assess chemical safety and governance.
