nVent Recognized for Third Consecutive Year as One of the World’s Most Ethical Companies
We’re proud to share Ethisphere has recognized nVent as one of the 2026 World’s Most Ethical Companies®. Ethisphere is a global leader in defining and advancing the standards of ethical business practices. This is the third consecutive year nVent has been recognized, reflecting the company’s longstanding focus on responsible business practices and a culture grounded in Absolute Integrity.
“Earning this distinction for a third consecutive year reinforces how deeply our Win Right Values, including integrity, are central to how we operate,” said Beth Wozniak, nVent Chair and CEO. “We demonstrate integrity in our interactions with our customers, suppliers, partners and how we show up for each other. I am incredibly proud our employees live our values every day.”
The World’s Most Ethical Companies assessment is grounded in Ethisphere’s proprietary Ethics Quotient®, which requires companies to provide 240+ documented proof points on practices that support robust ethics and compliance, including: corporate governance; program structure & resourcing; written standards; training, awareness, & communication; risk assessment & auditing; investigations, enforcement, discipline & incentives; measurement of ethical culture; third-party risk management, and environmental & social impact.
That data undergoes further qualitative analysis by a panel of experts who evaluate the group of applicants each year.
This process serves as an operating framework to capture and codify best-in-class ethics and compliance practices from organizations across industries and from around the world.
“Congratulations to nVent for achieving recognition as one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies®. As we mark the 20th class of honorees, this group continues to raise the bar for business integrity by embedding ethics into everyday decision-making and long-term strategy. Companies with strong ethics, compliance, and governance programs are built for better long-term performance,” said Erica Salmon Byrne, Ethisphere’s Chief Strategy Officer and Executive Chair.
This recognition adds to nVent’s recent sustainability-related awards and recognitions. nVent received a gold medal from EcoVadis for its company-wide sustainability efforts, recognition as one of Newsweek's World's Greenest Companies 2025, and secured placement on the 2025 Fortune Best Workplaces in Manufacturing & Production™ List.
