RCG achieves Silver in EcoVadis sustainability rating

EcoVadis is an internationally established provider of sustainability ratings and assesses companies on their performance in the areas of environment, labour and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement. RCG has been undergoing this assessment for several years and has once again achieved a very good result in 2026.

Strong sustainability performance 

Gold is awarded to the top five per cent and Silver to the top 15 per cent of assessed companies. With 79 out of 100 points, RCG has achieved a Silver Medal in the latest rating, placing it among the top seven per cent of companies assessed worldwide. As a leading rail logistics provider in Europe, RCG already makes a significant contribution to more sustainable freight mobility through its core business¹. At the same time, it is continuously working to further improve its sustainability performance beyond rail transport – from environmental and climate protection to responsible procurement and high standards in ethics, labour and human rights². The latest EcoVadis sustainability rating demonstrates RCG's progress in these areas and provides further motivation to consistently pursue the measures already introduced.

¹ÖBB rail freight transport in Austria produces more than 20 times less CO₂ emissions per tonne-kilometre than road freight transport (ÖBB rail freight: 3.11 g CO₂eq/tkm; comparison with HGVs: 75.3 g CO₂eq/tkm on average according to UBA 2024/NHB25). Calculation excludes vehicle manufacturing. 

²These include, among other things, supplier requirements in the procurement process, compliance and anti-corruption measures, and activities relating to occupational health and safety. Further information: RCG: Corporate Social Responsibility
