Wine and spirits company Amcor Capsules launches sustainability initiative
Amcor Capsules, the wine and spirits company, has launched a new sustainability initiative, TRANSPARENCE.
The programme uses data to drive towards clearly defined goals to use more sustainable closures and capsules, data which will be verified and certified by independent third-party sources.
The initiative is based on three principles: Reduce, which involves Amcor reducing its carbon footprint by 18% by FY25 compared to FY20, working closely with aluminium suppliers and reducing the use of secondary packaging in order to reach this goal; Recycle, which involves researching into the best methods to ensure all its products are recyclable or reusable by 2025; and Respect, which involves releasing information about the safety and sustainability of its supply chain to investors and the general public.
“TRANSPARENCE is a strong commitment that directly supports Wine and Spirits brands and distributors,” said Yannick Magnon, General Manager of Amcor Capsules.
“It is our commitment to continue to offer stronger sustainable solutions in the future, with corresponding environmental impacts and improvements independently verified and certified in the most transparent way. With such a public pledge, we aim to build trust and understanding, and improve standards of sustainability in our industry.”
