CHARLOTTE, NC, May 13, 2025 - Clariant Adsorbents Brazil has been named the recipient of the Strive 35 – Sustainability Award by ADM, a global leader in innovative solutions from nature. Clariant was one of six suppliers honored across distinct categories, recognized for its alignment with ADM’s Corporate Social Responsibility goals and commitment to sustainable operational practices.

Selected from approximately 40,000 global suppliers and 500 strategic partners, Clariant was recognized for delivering high-quality, sustainable performance across environmental, social, and economic criteria—while consistently meeting contractual obligations, KPIs, and delivery targets.

“We firmly believe that strong supplier relationships are foundational for success. True partnerships go beyond transactions—they fuel innovation, enhance efficiency, improve quality, and bolster resilience across our supply chain,” said Wade Wright, ADM Vice President, Global Indirect Procurement. “Today, we take the time to recognize those suppliers who exemplify excellence, collaboration, and a commitment to delivering the highest standards. Their dedication and partnership make a meaningful impact, and we are grateful for the value they bring to our organization.”

“We’re honored to receive this recognition from ADM, which reflects our shared commitment to sustainability and operational excellence,” said Nina Karpynec, Head of Purification Americas at Clariant. “This award underscores the strength of our partnership and motivates us to keep driving progress together, with Clariant delivering the purification solutions that help improve feedstock quality in edible oils and renewable fuels.”

The award criteria was based on both hard and soft data points from the supplier scorecard process, as well as direct feedback from ADM stakeholders. Awards were presented to non-commodity suppliers across six categories: Safety in Excellence, Supplier Quality, Service in Excellence, Value in Excellence, Sustainability, and Supplier of the Year.
