Priorities
Environment
We encourage increased recycling, engage in numerous campaigns to promote its value as well as to support the circular economy. By focusing on schools, universities, and communities, we hope to encourage awareness among children and youth, and demonstrate how PET can be recycled, and that recycling PET can protect the environment, reduce energy use, and create jobs. We also aim to be a business that enables increased collaborations and partnerships across borders in order to drive collective social and environmental impacts at scale. We play a leading role in environmental responsibility and protection through a recycling. Meanwhile, we take action to combat climate change by using more renewable energy, increasing innovation and production of low-carbon products, and reducing GHG.
