Sustainability is at the centre of our strategy

At Mondi, we recognise that we need to play our part in addressing challenges such as using resources efficiently, preventing food waste, tackling climate change, eliminating plastic pollution and providing safe and inspiring workplaces.  

We firmly believe that people are key in designing and executing the changes needed for a more sustainable future. Investing in our employees is as important as collaborating with partners across the value chain, scientific organisations and NGOs to convert research and findings into practical solutions and improved operations.
