Achievements and action plans to 2030

2020 Environmental Roadmap

Aim for 100% of consumer packaging to be — recyclable.

In FY17, the Group assessed that 99% of the primary — packaging is recyclable according to CITEO/ADELPHE specifications. In FY20, the Group will finalise and circulate — sustainable packaging guidelines; will establish reporting to measure progress against targets and will engage marketing in the implementation of these new guidelines.

2030 S&RRoadmap

From 2022, 100% of new projects adopt eco-design — principles reducing impact according to Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). By 2025, 100% of promotional items made from — single-use plastic are banned. By 2030, 100% of packaging is recyclable, reusable, — compostable or bio-based. By 2030, the Group will pilot five R&D projects on — circular ways of distributing Wine & Spirits. By 2030, launch initiatives to support recycling in 10 — key markets with low recycling levels.

Implement eco-design principles The first focus of Pernod Ricard’s action is to implement eco-design principles into product development processes to improve their lifecycle and minimise end waste. In terms of packaging, glass and cardboard are the main materials used. The Group uses a Life Cycle Analysis software which enables Marketing, development and procurement teams to assess the environmental impact of their brands and new developments in order to identify priorities to reduce their environmental impact. In 2016, Group’s priority brands have conducted a life-cycle analysis with this tool.

A second focus is to ensure packaging are recyclable. All primary — packaging has been reviewed in 2017 to identify all non-recyclable primary packaging and packaging components that might compromise the recycling of primary packaging according to the recyclability criteria of CITEO. More than 99% of the Group’s packaging (by weight) is recyclable. By 2025, 100% of packaging used by the Group will be recyclable, reusable, compostable or bio-based. The third aspect is to incorporate more recycled material into — packaging. By 2025, the Group will reach 50% post-consumer glass recycled content and 25% PET recycled content. Absolut increased the share of recycled material into its packaging: the percentage of cullet in its glass bottles has raised to 45%.

The fourth aspect is based on the use of bio-materials when recycled — content option is not available: some brands have replaced plastic caps made from oil with caps produced from sugarcane ethanol. Promote sustainable point-of-sale By 2025, 100% of single-use plastic point-of-sale (POS) will be eliminated. All non-biodegradable plastic straws and cocktail stirrers have already been banned by the Group. By 2030, the remaining POS will be reusable, recyclable or compostable.
