Mondi has improved its scores across all categories in the Environmental Paper Company Index (EPCI) 2017, a WWF tool to promote transparency and continual improvement in the pulp, paper and packaging sector. Mondi has participated in the Index since its inception in 2010 and has demonstrated continuous environmental improvement over time.
“We’re grateful for this valuable tool, which not only helps us benchmark our sustainability performance over time but also inspires us each year to improve,” explains John Lindahl, Mondi Group technical and sustainability director. “I am pleased that Mondi has managed to improve steadily across all of our relevant categories. It’s a testament to our ongoing commitment to transparency, and confirms that the hard work is paying off as we walk our sustainability journey.”
WWF’s EPCI tracks responsible sourcing, clean production and environmental management system reporting over time, helping participating companies and sectors improve their sustainability.
