Sustainability

As part of our overall sustainability programme and objectives, Aegg aligns its sustainability efforts with seven UN Sustainability Development Goals (UN SDG’s) with a particular focus on those related to emissions, innovation and social and community impact.

What is SBTi?

The Science-Based Targets initiative offers companies a clear, actionable path to align greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reductions with the latest climate science, which is deemed necessary to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement.  This is currently to limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels and achieve Net Zero by 2050. SBTi has developed global standards, tools, guidance, and target validation.  Thousands of businesses worldwide are already involved, and Aegg is delighted to join them.

We are delighted to announce that Aegg Creative Packaging has taken a major step towards our sustainability goals by signing up for the TotalEnergies Pure Green tariff. 

Aegg was recently asked to write an article aimed at cafe and coffee house retailers, providing advice on the sustainable packaging options available for these types of venues.  Here is our article:

As 2024 starts, the food and drinks packaging industry is undergoing significant changes driven by various factors such as increasing consumer demand for sustainable packaging, changing material costs, and the growing influence of ecommerce. Drawing on our team's combined packaging expertise, we explore some of the key trends that are shaping the future of food and drink packaging in 2024 and beyond.

Aegg is proud to partner with carefully selected environmentally friendly suppliers, in line with our collective drive towards enhanced sustainability.  

Aegg recently took part in the ECO Stars programme, a fuel management and operational efficiency support programme, designed as a measure for local authorities to improve local air quality by reducing emissions from heavy duty vehicles including bus and HGV fleets.

Food and drink packaging is rightly becoming more and more sustainable, from the initial design to the materials used, manufacturing processes right through to the supply chain. However, with emerging government legislation, innovations, and research, it is sometimes difficult to keep up to date with the latest sustainability factors.
