Sustainability

Packaging

Packaging is essential to bringing water and its health benefits to people, and this needs to be done in the most responsible way. Plastic pollution is an important issue. The system for plastic packaging needs to evolve and we want to be a part of the solution. We are working with experts to invest in the circular economy of packaging, keeping bottles in the loop and out of nature so that plastic can be recycled and reused.

In the UK & Ireland, our evian, Volvic and Harrogate bottles are recyclable. We're also working to increase the amount of recycled plastic in our bottles. For example, in 2020 we were proud to launch recycled plastic bottles* across our top selling evian formats.

Climate

At Danone UK & Ireland, we are committed to carbon reduction. We have set out a roadmap to reduce emissions in line with our global target and are our full supply chain in line with our 1.5°C, SBTi verified, carbon reduction target by 2030. 

We have focused on reducing emissions through: using renewable energy at bottling sites, optimising transport, making packaging improvements and developing new innovations. Thanks to improved energy efficiency and accelerated renewable energy transition, our global waters category scope 1&2 emissions reduced by 71% between 2015 and 2022.

Watershed Preservation

For many years we have been preserving the watersheds around evian and Volvic, working with an internal network of hydrogeologists and investing in local partnerships. Discover more about evian's work in the Evian-Les-Bains area and Volvic's conservation activities.
