Using Resources Responsibly

Through our award-winning No Waste vision, we have set ourselves the ambitious goal of eliminating waste in all its forms - within our own operations, by continuously developing more sustainable packaging solutions, and by tackling product waste to lead the industry towards a more sustainable future. We are committed to creating packaging that is easy to recycle, incorporates recycled materials, and is lightweight. Through strategic investments in our dedicated recycling business, ReCover, we have introduced advanced technologies and expanded our recycling capabilities to strengthen the circular economy.

By embracing sustainable practices and reducing waste in all its forms, we are not only using resources more efficiently but also supporting the long-term health of our environment. Preventing environmental pollution is a key priority, which is why we have implemented proactive measures to ensure our operations leave no lasting negative impact. Our commitment to biodiversity is reflected in our use of certified fibre-based and recycled materials across our packaging portfolio.
Aligned with global climate goals,  Coveris has received approval from the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for its near-term greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets in December 2025.

NEOEN Storbränkullen Windfarm

Having signed a 10-year purchase agreement with Neoen – one of the world’s largest producers of exclusively renewable energy – Sweden’s largest wind farm, with a production capacity equivalent to the annual consumption of 30,000 homes, will now supply Coveris with green electricity to meet the zero carbon emissions of its European plants.

Over the past few years, we’ve been gradually transitioning to green energy across our network, most recently in our sites in Austria, Hungary, and Egypt. This new agreement marks a major milestone in achieving zero Scope 2 CO₂ emissions across our operations.
