The report highlights our continuous improvement on key sustainability initiatives, goals, achievements, and strategic context over an abbreviated period of 11 months, from November 1, 2024, to September 30, 2025.

Bæredygtighed hos Greif

When we build sustainability into how we do business, we go beyond packaging to create performance that returns. Sustainability brings unmatched benefits for our business, teams, communities, customers, and planet.

  • Our customers excel in their sustainability journeys, while serving their own customers with packaging that performs and returns. 
  • Our colleagues grow when we foster a culture that values varied experiences, backgrounds, and skillsets, and creates equal opportunities for growth and development. 
  • Our business succeeds with sustainability, creating a workplace that is loved and colleagues that keep coming back to contribute their best selves. 
  • Our communities thrive when we create opportunities for our teams to give back, and we use our business success to help others.  
  • Our planet recovers when we take fewer resources, reuse what we have, cut down on waste and emissions, and get smart and intentional about reducing our climate impacts.
