Getting Worth from Packaging
At P&G we define sustainability broadly. It is about ensuring a better quality of life for everyone now and for generations to come. It's not just about "green" products tied to a current consumer movement, but a systematic approach covering our total supply chain, from raw materials to manufacturing processes to the Consumer, that results in meaningful sustainability improvements.
P&G has a long history of Sustainability, as one of the first companies to publish a corporate sustainability report and helping to pioneer the use of Life Cycle Assessments. P&Gs commitment continues today with the recent announcement of our Long Term Environmental Sustainability Vision and 2020 Goals.
This webinar will include the following:
- History of Sustainability at P&G
- Information about our current Sustainability Long-Term Vision and 2020 Goals
- Using a Data Based approach to drive Sustainability
- Sustainability Tool Kit – Designing Sustainability In
- Case Studies of Sustainable Products/Packages
- Challenges and Opportunities
