Tetra Pak has been named as a European Climate Leader 2023 by the Financial Times, in recognition of the company’s progress in reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and its robust commitments to climate action.

Of the thousands assessed by the Financial Times and Statista, only the leading 500 companies with the greatest reduction in their GHG emissions intensity made it to the final list.

Each company in the list has been assigned an individual score, which is calculated using information on the company’s volume of emissions, level of disclosure on these emissions and its reduction of emissions as a percentage.

Tetra Pak was ranked amongst the top 20% of the 500 companies listed, achieving a 54.3% absolute reduction of the Scope 1 and 2 emissions over a five-year period1. The ranking also recognizes Tetra Pak’s efforts across the value chain (Scope 3), highlighting its regular inclusion amongst CDP A-listed businesses and its net-zero targets as approved by Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) along a 1.5° pathway.

Adolfo Orive, President & CEO at Tetra Pak, says: “The acknowledgment is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team, suppliers, customers and other stakeholders. While we are proud of our achievements to date, we have plans to continue mitigating our environmental impact further – by decarbonising our value chain, driving circular solutions while contributing to food system resilience and protecting biodiversity. All these actions are core to our purpose, as we commit to making food safe and available everywhere and we promise to protect what’s good – food, people and the planet.”

Patinya Silsupadol, Head of Sustainability, Tetra Pak (Thailand) Limited, says: “In Thailand, we have worked with key stakeholders in several initiatives to support our company’s commitments. We have already worked with our suppliers and installed solar panels in our factories in Rayong province to maximise energy use from renewable sources. With our key customers, we are seeking solutions to save water in their factories to ensure efficient wastewater management.”

“Partnering with industry associations and peers, we support and take action on the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) on shared and own environmental projects. On social and environmental benefits, the Green Shelter project is promoting used beverage carton collection and giving back to the community by supporting those in need with recyclable materials for new houses for disaster victims.”

“From Europe to Southeast Asia, and around the world where Tetra Pak operates, we unite as one team to make steps to support our sustainability goals and commitments.”
