Mediator and DFGE: New partnership for Scandinavia

Kolding, March 5, 2025 | Mediator ApS enters into a strategic partnership with Certania partner DFGE.

The purpose of this collaboration is to strengthen the joint expertise within sustainability and social responsibility. In addition to services related to product analyses, life cycle assessments/LCAs and product carbon footprints, the focus will be on offering companies in Denmark comprehensive services within sustainability reporting such as EcoVadis and CDP.

With this collaboration, both companies will leverage their strengths in their respective markets and support their customers even better through an expanded service offering. 

DFGE contributes its many years of experience within EcoVadis and CDP implementation services in close collaboration with Mediator, leveraging its extensive market knowledge and customer relationships in Scandinavia.

Dr.-Ing. Thomas Fleissner, founder and CEO of DFGE, comments on the partnership: “We are delighted to be working with Mediator. This partnership enables us to offer our sustainability expertise in a targeted way outside our core market. The “Nordic” region is among the leading nations in sustainability – here too the challenges with CSRD have increased and we look forward to supporting the challenging projects within the EcoVadis and CDP areas.”

Jens Haugaard, CEO of Mediator, is also excited about the collaboration: “The collaboration with DFGE provides significant benefits for our clients in Denmark. We can now offer an even broader range of first-class sustainability reporting and assessment services that meet the requirements and international standards.”

The collaboration between Mediator and DFGE represents a shared commitment to promoting sustainable business processes and delivering high-quality solutions to companies in Denmark and Germany.

For 10 years, DFGE has been EcoVadis' first official DACH training partner, supporting companies in presenting their ESG and sustainability performance in the EcoVadis and CDP rating format. DFGE provides companies with individual and tailored support for their disclosure participation. DFGE's services for EcoVadis and CDP include, among others, training for companies and supply chains, modular consulting as a complement to Mediator's calculations such as carbon footprint to turnkey holistic support in EcoVadis and CDP assessments.
