for our environment. We measure our environmental performance by our
waste reduction, our adoption of technologies that take full advantage
of innovations within our industry, our use of alternative energy and our
investment in renewable resources.

of the world’s forests. The paper used in Tetra Pak® packaging is sourced from
sustainably managed forests.

LIGHTCAP

Options are available to increase the renewable content of our packages
utilising plant-based (sugar Cane) for our caps and packaging layers.
Another great way to improve sustainability outcomes!

RECYCLABLE PACKAGING

Our Tetra Pak® cartons are fully recyclable, often turned into value added
products — reducing the amount of material going into landfill, and further
reducing our climate impact.

PACKAGING SUSTAINABILITY

Independent research has confirmed that cartons have the lowest impact
on climate change compared to glass and other plastic formats.
This results from being produced mainly from plants (paperboard), lightweight, and
highly efficient through the supply chain. Introducing plant-based caps and polymers
reduces this impact even further.

Using renewable materials means we can continue to supply safe products in packaging
that protects the food, forests and our planet for future generations.

PLANET AND ENVIRONMENT

We are proud to be
working towards a viably
sustainable business model,
collecting and using
renewable
resources such as wind,
solar, rain, and
repurposing our used water.
Our ongoing partnership
with Tetra Pak®
combined with our other
sustainability initiatives,
help us produce eco-
friendly food products with
a smaller carbon footprint.

The latest technology is used to optimise
our energy use and reduce emissions so
