Millcraft Earns EcoVadis Bronze Medal for Sustainability Performance

Cleveland, Ohio – September 2026 – Millcraft, an independent, fourth-generation, family-owned merchant serving the professional paper, packaging and graphic arts industries, is proud to announce that it has earned a Bronze Medal from EcoVadis, a globally recognized provider of business sustainability ratings.

The Bronze Medal places Millcraft among the top 35% of companies assessed by EcoVadis during the 12 months prior to the medal issue date. The recognition reflects the quality of Millcraft’s sustainability management system and its commitment to promoting transparency throughout the value chain.

EcoVadis evaluates companies across four key areas of sustainability performance: Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. The EcoVadis assessment methodology examines the policies, actions and reporting companies have established to manage sustainability practices across these areas.

“Earning an EcoVadis Bronze Medal is an important milestone for Millcraft and reflects the work happening throughout our organization to operate responsibly and thoughtfully,” said Greg Lovensheimer, President of Millcraft. “Sustainability has long been an important part of how we approach our products, partnerships and operations. This recognition gives us an opportunity to celebrate our progress while continuing to look for meaningful ways to improve.”

For more than a century, Millcraft has built its business around relationships and a commitment to positively impacting its co-workers, customers, supply partners, families and communities. Sustainability is an extension of that commitment, from offering environmentally certified paper and product options to working with customers and suppliers to make responsible choices throughout the supply chain.

Millcraft’s EcoVadis Bronze Medal is valid through September 2027.
