Feel good, look good, and get more out of life.
We have been driving an ambitious sustainability agenda for over two decades. Yet, in the face of ever-growing economic, environmental and social challenges, we are evolving our approach.
Ringing the alarm and setting long-term ambitions isn't good enough anymore. Now is the time to focus on delivering impact by making sustainability progress integral to business performance.
We are determined to face into this reality to deliver consistent and competitive performance, while transforming our business to achieve our sustainability goals.
Fewer things, done better, with greater impact.
Our Growth Action Plan addresses these challenges head-on. In the coming years, our focus will be on four sustainability priorities: Climate, Nature, Plastics and Livelihoods.

- Reduce absolute operational GHG emissions (Scope 1 & 2) by 100% by 2030 from a 2015 baseline.

- Reduce absolute Scope 3 forest, land and agriculture (FLAG) GHG emissions** by 30.3% by 2030 from a 2021 baseline.
