Berry Global reports ESG progress

Berry Global recently released its 2022 Impact Report, delivering an assessment of the company’s progress towards its global Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) commitments.


Berry Global has released its 2022 Impact Report. The report highlights how Berry Global drives meaningful progress towards its global Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) commitments.

“With growth and leadership comes responsibility. We take our role as a responsible corporate citizen seriously – throughout our company and across the global value chain,” said Tom Salmon, CEO and Chairman of the Board at Berry Global. "The compilation of efforts from our 46,000 team members to prioritise our ESG commitments is evident at every level of our business, from making meaningful progress toward achieving our climate change goals to bolstering our commitment to safety with a Total Recordable Incident Rate considerably below the industry average.”

Some of Berry Global’s most significant results in 2022, compared to 2021, include:

  • Increased purchase of post-consumer recycled plastic by 28% thanks to significant customer collaborations
  • Increased circular plastic purchased by 21% through investments in Berry Circular Polymers and partnerships with key resin suppliers 
  • Achieved Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions target four years in advance and increased the target accordingly
  • Reduced Scope 1 and 2 (operational) GHG emissions by 5% and Scope 3 (value chain) GHG emissions by 5%

Meeting customer expectations
The focus on ESG in Berry Global worldwide means that Berry Superfos can support its customers through products and engineered materials - delivering the innovation that customers expect. Søren Rohleder, CEO of Berry Superfos, says:

“As a packaging leader, we recognise the worldwide plastic waste issue and our responsibility in addressing it. The report spotlights how Berry Global, including Berry Superfos, works to promote the circular economy by providing access to recycled materials and forming strategic partnerships to develop innovative products. We remain passionate about preserving resources and developing sustainable packaging solutions that advance our customers' sustainability goals.”

The 2022 Impact Report is packed with insights on Berry Global’s management approaches to ESG goals and highlights of collaborative efforts to advance a circular, net-zero economy. You may find it particularly inspiring that the report contains short descriptions of 25 distinct packaging solutions that are noteworthy for their use of recycled plastic content, enhanced recyclability, reusability/refillability, or reduced carbon footprint.
