Sustainability

Scholle Packaging’s
Sustainability and Social Responsibility Vision

With a footprint that stretches over 60 countries, Scholle understands the importance of environmental and social responsibility at both the local and global level.

Scholle recognizes the significance of the time, energy and resources used to produce the valuable products held within every package we create. Through continuous innovation and process improvement, we create flexible packaging solutions that allow products to be stored longer, maintain product quality, maximize supply chain efficiencies and ensure the safe delivery–and use–of food and non-food products.

Scholle’s pioneering spirit leads us to create innovations that reduce greenhouse gas emissions as well as drive energy and resource efficiencies.

As a responsible corporate citizen, Scholle understands our responsibility to society extends beyond the walls of our organization. Therefore, we will continue to invest in the wellbeing of our employees, their families and the communities in which we operate.

Scholle Packaging’s Sustainability and Social Responsibility Goals

• Greenhouse Gas Reduction: Globally reduce our carbon footprint 20% by 2015.
• Reduce Waste and Increase Efficiencies: Maximize supply chain efficiencies while reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Drive for energy and resource efficiencies.
• Community: Extend our responsibility to society beyond the walls of our organization. Continuously invest in the wellbeing of our employees, their families and the communities in which we operate.
• Communication: Communicate internally and externally for clear understanding of Scholle’s sustainability program.

Please re-visit this page in the coming months for updates on our progress in achieving these goals.
