Zero waste to landfill in the factories of Unilever
Unilever today announced it has achieved a key sustainability target of sending zero non-hazardous* waste to landfill from its global factory network. Believed to be a global first for delivering zero waste on this scale, more than 240 factories in 67 countries making products for brands such as Magnum, Knorr, Dove and Domestos have now eliminated landfill waste.
Unilever has stated its ambition is to double the size of its business while reducing its environmental impact. The company is the Food Products Industry Leader in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index and last week was awarded a Gold Class distinction for its excellent sustainability performance by RobecoSAM in their Sustainability Yearbook 2015. The zero waste to landfill target forms a key element of Unilever’s sustainable growth ambitions.
