YKK Corporation, a global leader in fastening solutions, has been recognized as a “Supplier Engagement Leader” by the international environmental non-profit, CDP, for its efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions throughout its supply chain.
YKK’s recognition places the company in the top 8% of companies evaluated for supplier outreach on climate change. The annual Supplier Engagement Rating (SER) by CDP assesses how effectively companies engage with their suppliers on climate change issues. YKK’s governance, targets, and initiatives to collaborate with suppliers to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions throughout the YKK supply chain, all contributed to the company’s recognition as a “Supplier Engagement Leader.”
