WITH
CIRCULARITY AT THE CORE
We are striving to improve our practices throughout the life cycle of our products, from design to end of life. For our packaging, we are developing solutions to reduce the use of materials and encourage recycling by embracing a circular approach built on the 3R’s: Reduce Replace and Recycle.
We are working to weave circularity into every step of our product development processes. This includes lightweighting our packaging to lower packaging intensity, using recycled and biobased materials, reducing our plastic use, introducing refillable products.
This requires a system-wide transformation and multi stakeholder collaboration to collectively overcome the supply chain and infrastructure barriers. Our current target reflects this balance, allowing us to implement sustainable solutions responsibly while driving future innovation.
