The future depends on the sustainable work we do today.

Pact’s Sustainability Strategy is structured into three key pillars: Our People, Our Planet, Our Principles. These pillars underpin our Vision to Lead the Circular Economy and drive our purpose to design out waste, keep resources and materials in circulation, and regenerate natural systems.

Minimising our operational impact

In FY22, Pact Group committed to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by 50% in Australia and New Zealand by 2030, from a FY21 baseline. Pact’s target relates to the emissions the company is directly and indirectly producing. Direct, or scope 1 emissions, covers sources that Pact either owns or controls such as the gases generated at its facilities from furnaces, boilers, heavy machinery and LPG forklifts. Indirect, or scope 2 emissions, are emissions that Pact causes indirectly from purchasing electricity from the grid to power its facilities. Pact will initially focus on reducing emissions at its operations in Australia and New Zealand, where the company has its biggest footprint. Pact’s greenhouse gas emissions reduction target will expand to include its operations throughout the Asia Pacific in the coming years. Our business activities have a direct impact on the environment and as a leader of the Circular Economy, it is our responsibility to ensure we contribute positively to the global action on climate change. Our 50% emissions reduction target also means we are aligning ourselves with the expectations of our suppliers, customers, and society .
