By GlobalDataSiegwerk is also preparing to launch a Supplier Sustainability Programme in 2024, which will focus on carbon reduction and adherence to the UN Global Compact Principles.
This programme will build on existing supplier diligence actions such as raw material introduction processes, regular supplier meetings, and audits, contributing to technological and supply reliability in the face of challenging supply chains.
Siegwerk Global Sustainability and Circular Economy head Alina Marm said: “Siegwerk’s commitment to sustainability extends beyond mere compliance; we are weaving it into the fabric of our corporate ethos.
“Sustainability leadership begins with transparency, and it requires taking the long view and being willing to take short-term risks in order to achieve long-term results. We believe that sustainability is a business imperative, and we are fully committed to ´walking the talk´ in this regard.”
Last year, Siegwerk partnered with three industry partners to launch a new project, called ‘SleeveConnect’ to collaboratively develop a sustainable bottle packaging solution.
