Tetra Pak Makes Further Progress On Sustainability Transformation … – Ink World Magazine

Tetra Pak published its Sustainability Report FY22, highlighting the companys progress across various aspects of sustainability. Now in its 24th edition, the report demonstrates how sustainability remains core to Tetra Paks strategy and continues to be prioritized in decision making.

During 2022, Tetra Pak achieved significant milestones, reducing operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 39%, with 84% of the energy coming from renewable sources. This puts the company on track to achieve net zero within its own operations by 2030.

Additionally, the sale of 8.8 billion plant-based packages and 11.9 billion plant-based caps translated into 131 kilo tons of CO2 savings. Tetra Pak also invested nearly 30 million to accelerate collection and recycling of beverage cartons, while working with food technology incubators and start-ups to explore the future of sustainable food.

This was in the context of a year marked by considerable uncertainty, driven by the after-effects of COVID-19, supply chain issues and geo-political challenges such as Russias invasion of Ukraine. The combination of all these factors has resulted in significant financial challenges for businesses and consumers, driving up the cost of living and resulting in food insecurity for many.

The current operating environment has emphasized the need for integrated, systemic solutions, Adolfo Orive, president and CEO at Tetra Pak, said. This is the only way we can meet the scale and speed of change required to strengthen food access while reducing the environmental impact, in a way that leaves no one behind.
