Time to reflect on how we are doing our part in the whole packaging value chain to drive circular initiatives ♻️ and to decarbonize our operations. Here are a few selected highlights that underpin our ambition to be the label partner of choice when it comes to sustainability and responsibility.

Our products are focused on reduce, reuse and recycle! 

By 2025, all customers of CCL will be able to choose label products and solutions that will not hinder consumer-packaged goods to be recyclable, reusable or compostable. 

We actively support reuse systems all over the globe 

Our iconic WashOff labels have supported the reuse systems of our customers for years - mainy global beer and water brands. But we have much more to offer to reuse schemes - think RFID tags integrated in labels and sleeves and IML (inmould labels), aluminium containers for reuse packaging and now also the technology to make it all work...through our relatively recent acquisition of CCL eAgile Inc., IT and Consulting.

Our production plants are committed to circular solutions and waste reduction 

All our 213 sites gobally are held to high standards and have been actively engaging in initiatives to reduce or eliminate production waste, such as our plant in Vinhedo, Brazil, that has been a zero waste plant for many years. To achieve waste reduction we team up with local recylers and solution providers to recycle our waste materials.  

SBTi validated targets to drive our decarbonization journey

A few weeks ago we announced that the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) validated the company’s science-based greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets conform with the SBTi Standards and Guidance (Criteria version 5.1) and the SBTi Corporate Net-Zero Standards and Guidance.  

And this is only the beginning...to do our part to preserve
