Today, Tetra Pak launches its 25th Sustainability Report, which tracks the progress the company has made against its global sustainability agenda. It focuses on five interdependent areas: food systems, circularity, climate, nature and social sustainability.

Launching on the United Nation’s World Environment Day, June 5, the company’s Sustainability Report FY23¹ shows a 20% reduction in value chain² GHG emissions and a 47% reduction in GHG emissions across its own operations since 2019. The latter puts Tetra Pak on track to meet its target of net-zero GHG emissions in its own operations by 2030³ and supports the company’s long-term ambition to work together with suppliers, customers and other stakeholders to achieve net-zero GHG emissions across the value chain by 2050.⁴

Accompanying the organization’s global report is a supplement highlighting achievements in the United States and Canada during the same time period.

A sampling of achievements featured in the supplement include:

• Expansion of the Denton, Texas, Technical Training Center to provide hands-on training for Tetra Pak employees and customers to improve operational efficiencies while minimizing downtime and production waste at customer sites
• 330% year-over-year increase in packs delivered with plant-based plastics in the U.S. and Canada
• Elevating the importance of sustainable food systems during a featured panel and pop-up experience at the 2024 Fast Company Grill at SXSW
