With a rating of 61 out of 100 points, Sartorius AG positions itself in the upper quarter of the ESG ranking for Germany.
ESG is the abbreviation for Environmental, Social and Governance and represents the three central factors in evaluating sustainability and social compatibility in investment decisions. Sartorius operates in a comparatively sustainable business field. Low production volumes and high potential for developments benefiting society as a whole result in a significantly better rating compared to, for example, automobile manufacturers with the same active efforts toward more ethical conduct. In recent years, Sartorius largely ignored this topic.

The questionnaires of the CDP Initiative, the largest alliance of investors for climate-oriented investing, were not answered, no separate sustainability report was prepared for the annual financial statements, and common standards such as GRI (Global Reporting Initiative) or UNGC (UN Global Compact) were not considered. For the past year, there were signs of change, probably also due to the new Disclosure Regulation, which has been in force for one month. Despite initial steps in the area of reporting, Sartorius still has a long way to go, as a number of essential data are missing. The detailed rating of Sartorius can be found here.
