Within Nutricia we have prioritised 3 key pillars to focus on

  • Climate – the ambition is to achieve zero net carbon by 2050
  • Packaging – 100% reusable, recyclable or compostable packaging by 2025
  • Food waste – cut food waste by 50% by 2030

1st carbon neutral baby formula plant in the world! 

Packaging

Single use straws

In 2020 we have been removed single use straws from 61 products. This has taken 40 million straws out of circulation and has avoided 19 tonnes of plastic going to landfill. Straws will be removed from paediatric oral nutritional supplements in 2021.

Recyclable OpTri bottles

OpTri bottles for enteral tube feeding are manufactured using 85% less water and produce 21% less CO2 emissions than previously. OpTri bottles are made from high density polyethylene and are fully recyclable.
