PSI Launch Sustainability Awards

Posted in Industry News on Tue 21 Apr 2015

PSI Sustainability AwardsThe PSI have launched eight Sustainability Awards created exclusively for the promotional product industry.

Taking place at a gala event in autumn 2015, this will be the industry’s first comprehensive awards evening honouring sustainable activities. PSI members as well as non-members may apply online now and they can enter a product, a campaign or their company as a whole.

The new sustainability awards will evaluate participating companies and their in-house initiatives, products and campaigns by considering three pillars of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and sustainability: economy, environment and social impact. Participants will be assigned a score based on an objective scoring system and the opinions of a jury of experts.

The eight award categories are: Economic Excellence, Ecological Excellence, Social Excellence, Ecological Initiative of the Year, Social Initiative of the Year, Product, Campaign and Sustainable Company of the Year 2015. Participation is open to all companies from the promotional products sector from Germany and abroad.

Submissions will be evaluated using a two-part system. First, all uploaded certificates will be assigned a score using a predefined scoring system. The more demanding the profile of a certificate, the higher the score. In addition, the type of company – manufacturer or importer, for example – will be considered, as will the size of the company and the production location or production facilities.

A jury of experts will then assign scores in the categories; Ecological Initiative of the Year, Social Initiative of the Year, Product and Campaign. The sum total of all points determines which companies will be honoured with a PSI Sustainability Award. Participation fees range from 190 to 230 euros for PSI members and 380 to 460 euros for non-members.
