Plus Pack
achievements 2022
Plus Pack has set ambitious targets on sustainability efforts and continuously work on improving our efforts, data and reporting.
The annual report 2022 was Plus Pack’s second report, where relevant sustainability data was integrated into the management’s review. We would therefore like to share some of the highlights from our initiatives and achievements from last year.
Transforming food packaging.
for good.
Plus Pack’s sales of circular products grew to 88% of total sales in 2022 vs. 85% in 2021. This milestone plays a significant role in our Circular 2024 strategy, which holds large investments to develop new circular products. Circular Sales consists of food packaging, which support a circular economy by being manufactured from materials, which fulfill common requirements for reuse and recycling.
We held 11 Packaging Schools with existing partners, where we shared the latest knowledge on circularity, the legislative landscape and the dilemmas in choosing the right food packaging solution. These training sessions provide valuable insights and important knowledge sharing and is a great way to connect and collaborate with our business partners.
Do the talk. Do the walk.
For good.
In 2022, Plus Pack reduced its direct CO2 emissions with 18% compared to 2021. This progress was realized through a variety of initiatives, including installing LED bulbs and motion sensors, reducing temperature in buildings and implementing a new energy monitoring system in our production site in Genk, Belgium to ensure continuous improvements.
Furthermore, Plus Pack invested in a new warehouse building and installed 4.096 solar panels capable of covering 30% of electricity consumption in Odense. The new warehouse building is DGNB certified Silver according to the standard by the German Sustainable Building Council and constructed with elements that are easy to dismantle, reuse and recycle.
Commitments to change.
For good.
A strong health and safety record is essential to ensure a good and attractive working environment for all employees. Plus Pack continued to perform employee well-being surveys during 2022 and received a 6% increase or a score of 7,1 equivalent to a score at the high end of the normal range.
Plus Pack participated in the cross-sector project Climate-Ready Manufacturing Company by the Confederation of Danish Industry to have data validated and to identify further climate reduction initiatives. Plus Pack also continued to engage as co-chair and in working groups within the Retail Sector Cooperation on Plastic Packaging under the Danish Ministry of Environment.
The drive to make a difference.
For good.
We are happy and proud of our continued sponsorship of the “Det Kærlige Måltid”, which is a Danish non-profit organisation passionate about community, cooking and citizenship. We donate our packaging solutions, which is then used to pack and deliver nutritious and tasteful meals every week for families effected by life threatening illnesses or in acute distress.
