Food processing and packaging are essential to enable the transition to secure, sustainable and resilient food systems1. As an industry, we need to work together across the food value chain, and take collective actions that can help decarbonise and transform the world’s food systems, while contributing to circularity and increasing food packaging recycling.
Our ambition is to lead the sustainability transformation within our industry. That means contributing to sustainable development2 and making a positive impact3 through our products, services and actions.
