For this 12th edition, CAHPP publishes the results of the Green Index 2024
CAHPP is pursuing its approach to promote corporate social responsibility with its stakeholders: its healthcare partners, facilities and patients.
Created in 2012, the Green Index assesses the sustainable development strategy of its referenced suppliers every year, on a contractual and evidence-based basis, in order to help healthcare establishments make sustainable and responsible purchases. Depending on the results, CAHPP may or may not award the Green Index (A, A+, A++ or B and C ratings).
This year 84% of all the suppliers responded to the Green Index questionnaire.
New this year, CAHPP is introducing 3 special awards: the Best Progress Award, the Best Entry Award and the Expertise Award.

“It is CAHPP’s responsibility to involve the healthcare industry in a CSR policy. We welcome the commitment and loyalty of our partners to the Green Index, a structured and now controlled evaluation syste”, says Christophe Sadoine, Chairman and CEO of CAHPP. “Launched in 2024, the controlled Green Index aims to verify the CSR strategy of referenced suppliers and to analyse any minor or major discrepancies that may exist between the documented responses to the Green Index and ‘real life’. There are several stages involved in taking part in the assessment: preparation, pre-screening, the on-site audit with a feedback session at the end of the day followed by a full report with an action plan and recommendations three weeks after the audit.”
Isabelle Hamelin, Director of Public Relations, CSR and Communication adds, “40 suppliers are waiting to pass the Controlled Green Index. This is proof of trust and transparency”.
The CAHPP 2024 Partners’ Day brought together over 300 participants: collaborators, institutional partners and suppliers. It was an opportunity to award trophies to the winning suppliers.
