The Packaging SAM agenda
In order to effect sustainable packaging management, SABMiller
seeks to:
Adopt a holistic approach to sustainable packaging management:
▪ using cradle to cradle environmental assessments as part of
new packaging developments and upgrades.
▪ in particular ,consider the carbon footprint of each packaging
substrate and aim to protect low carbon packaging routes
such as returnable bottles, whilst encouraging new low
carbon materials.
Consider the potential for packaging light weighting and/or
elimination.
Optimise packaging for recycling and/or reuse.
