We’ve introduced new targets for ZERO Packaging Waste. 

By 2030 we will make 100% of our packaging recyclable, reusable or renewable. Our actions will help drive change towards a more circular economy, reducing our environmental impact. 

We are additionally targeting a 50% reduction in virgin fossil-based plastics and 50% recycled content in our bottles and cans.

The activities we undertake to achieve ZERO Packaging Waste also create carbon impact benefits, accelerating progress towards a ZERO Carbon Footprint across our entire value chain by 2040.
