Our sustainability priorities

PLANET
The circular economy has long been the core of our business. We use renewable, recyclable, and recycled materials to create innovative, sustainable packaging solutions. As a leading recycler, we play our part in ensuring that at their end-of-life, our products are recycled. This combines to help our customers deliver on their sustainability goals.
PEOPLE AND COMMUNITIES
Having engaged employees is critical for the success of our business. We are committed to providing an inclusive and safe place to work for the talented people in our globally and culturally diverse organization. Our commitment also extends to all of the communities in which we operate.
INNOVATING FOR OUR CUSTOMERS
Through our activities, we aim to create sustainable value for our customers, investors, employees, suppliers and the communities in which we are privileged to operate. We innovate and partner with our customers to create packaging solutions that can replace less sustainable materials and reduce their carbon footprint. We do this with the highest ethical business standards.

Our approach to sustainability

Circularity and a world without waste

We aim to contribute to a world without waste and strive continuously for greater circularity. We work to reduce our resource use and to recycle and reuse material and products, rethinking the production process and maximizing the beneficial use of by-products. Our innovative packaging solutions help customers reduce waste, enhance circularity and achieve their sustainability goals.

Developing People and Empowering Communities

We are committed to fostering a safe, diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone has a real sense of belonging and can be their authentic selves at work every day. We are deeply committed to our communities and collaborating with them. We encourage our local teams to connect with their communities through social and environmental initiatives.

Sustainable Forestry

We focus on sustainable forest management through Chain of Custody certified practices. We are committed to zero deforestation and recognize the importance of protecting and preserving biodiversity and protecting nature. From responsible sourcing to conservation initiatives, we are dedicated to working with nature for a greener, bluer planet.

Water stewardship

While we mainly process water to make paper and packaging, we work to reduce the water we consume and ensure we return high quality water back to the environment. We also work to protect forests, which in turn support healthy water systems for the future.

UN SDGs

We recognize the importance of the UN 2023 Sustainable Development Goals and that aligning strategic priority areas within the SDGs framework supports a global effort for sustainable development.
