JELD-WEN Europe, a leading designer, manufacturer, and distributor of interior and exterior doors and door sets, is proud to announce that JELD-WEN France has once again achieved the ECOVADIS Gold Medal, placing the business in the top 2% of companies worldwide assessed for sustainability performance.

The ECOVADIS assessment is one of the world’s most trusted business sustainability ratings, covering four key themes: Environment, Social & Human Rights, Ethics, and Responsible Purchasing. This year, JELD-WEN France achieved a score of 83/100, improving on last year’s strong result of 79/100, with notable gains in Environment (+3 points) and Social & Human Rights (+8 points).
