We’re looking at everything we do and seeing how we can innovate and improve to reduce our carbon footprint. "
We’ve already set ourselves some tough targets:
Net-zero

REDUCE
excess packaging materials where possible

REDUCE
water withdrawal (usage) year-on-year in our factories and distribution centers. Since 2018 we have reduced our water withdrawal by 21% across all sites.
By 2025
make 100% of our packaging designed for recycling (moving from 85% widely recyclable, 13% designed for recycling, and 2% not recyclable). Currently, 98% of our packaging is designed for recycling.

Whilst we already have made great progress over the past few years (for example 100% of our purchased electricity comes from renewable sources), reaching carbon net-zero emissions will require changes to the way we do business. But the challenge doesn’t scare us – we’ve built a detailed roadmap on how we can achieve all we need to and will continue to work on the gaps we need to close...
