So that each of our sources remains resilient for generations to come.

Nature targets aligned with science

We aim to develop nature targets according to Science Based Targets for Nature (SBTN)

Accelerating reuse in packaging

We innovate and promote reusable packagings. From returnable glass bottles to very large packaging solutions designed for refillable containers, we’re making it easier for people to choose reuse.

At the same time, we’re:

  • Integrating more recycled materials,
  • Reducing the weight of our packaging,
  • Improving collection of bottles

These actions move us one step further into a truly circular economy—with less packaging waste and fewer single‑use plastics.

Reuse

Increase towards 30% the share of volume sold in returnable packaging or packaging supporting the use of refillable containers

Reduce

by 15% the amount of single use plastic (SUP) by liter of water sold vs 2018

Recycle

100% recyclable, reusable or renewable packaging and integrate 30% RPET in our bottles

Engage

In development of collection, sorting and recycling systems

Reducing our carbon footprint towards Net Zero

Taking action on climate change can’t wait. That’s why we’re committed to reaching Net Zero by 2050, following the Science Based Targets initiative. Our focus is clear: cut emissions as close to zero as possible.

By 2030, we’re driving major progress by:

  • Cutting and greening energy use in our factories
  • Reducing packaging and transport emissions together with our partners
