SÜDPACK has voluntarily released its fourth Sustainability Report, which provides concrete evidence of the advancements made in 2020 and 2021. The film producer’s ambitious sustainability strategy has received a lot of support thanks to the recent cross-sector ranking that placed SÜD-PACK as the 36th most sustainable SME in Germany out of over 4,000 companies. Because the companies’ sustainability reports—particularly their ESG targets and the success of those goals—were a specific factor in choosing the front-runners. One thing unites all of the Top 50 companies: they have consistently demonstrated a commitment to the three areas of ecology, economy, and social responsibility.
The second page of the 84-page Sustainability Report contains significant data that shows right away that sustainability is vital at SÜDPACK in all contexts and is a constant call to action. For instance, it has produced 63 MWh of electricity from its own renewable resources. New technologies that enhance sustainability account for 57% of its total investments. Sustainable items already account for 30% of their revenue. There has been a 15% decrease in waste. Compliance, diversity, and social responsibility are given top priority.
However, crucial areas of activity for SÜDPACK and its stakeholders have been redefined in contrast to its prior report for 2020. The most recent report, which significantly expands upon its prior sustainability strategy, is now broken down into the following sections: corporate governance, sustainable efficiency, circular economy, climate protection, and social responsibility. Corporate governance covers the economic pillars of sustainability and sustainable efficiency in addition to its new set of guiding values and updated code of conduct.
Overall, over both financial years, tremendous progress was made in every area, and the report reflects this: SÜDPACK is still putting a lot of effort into creating exceptionally recyclable, sustainable, and materially efficient structures. Great examples of this are its Pure-Line line of PP and PE-based high-performance films, its aluminum-free doypack, and its halogen-free film solution for making blister packaging.
