Retal is leading packaging producer in Financial Times Climate Leaders Europe 2024
The Financial Times has placed Retal as the highest ranked packaging producer on its 2024 Climate Leaders Europe list. The independent list is a collaboration between the Financial Times and Statista, with the recognition gained thanks to Retal’s constant effort in managing climate change impact since 2018, including its A score from CDP, Science Based Targets validated by SBTi (including its Scope 1 target already reached ahead of schedule), a 33% total renewable energy usage across the business, and a climate change risk assessment according to TCFD (Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures).
Now in its fourth edition, the list focuses on businesses that have made the greatest reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, with factors such as value chain transparency, collaboration with sustainability assessors used to produce an overall total for each company. https://www.ft.com/climate-leaders-europe-2024
Retal Chief Sustainability Officer Emmanuel Duffaut says, “We are very proud to be recognized by the Financial Times and Statista and are already looking forward to making the list next year as we yet again improve our management and further mitigate our GHG emissions. I would be delighted to talk to any of our customers or potential customers about how we’ve achieved this independent recognition. We are all on this journey together, so understanding how we can continue to encourage positive actions is good for us all.”
