Trivium Packaging released the 2024 Sustainability Report, highlighting significant strides in environmental performance, circular innovation, and community impact. These efforts come at a critical time when only 7.2% of the world’s materials are currently being cycled back into the economy, a gap that Trivium is committed to playing its part in advancing sustainable practices and redefining how materials are used and reused.

"At Trivium Packaging, sustainability is not just an operational goal. It’s a foundational mindset that drives our business transformation,” says Trivium CEO Michael Mapes. “In 2024, we continued to reduce our carbon footprint while empowering our teams to innovate for a circular economy. We are proud of our progress but remain focused on the work ahead as we strive toward net-zero emissions by 2050. Together with our partners and communities, we are shaping a future where sustainability is at the heart of every decision."

Key Achievements in 2024

Reduction in greenhouse gas emissions: Trivium achieved a 2% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in 2024, keeping the company on track to meet its Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi)-validated goal of a 42% reduction by 2030 (from a 2020 baseline).

Advancing circular solutions: With metal packaging solutions uniquely positioned to support circularity, Trivium continued to innovate by increasing recycled content and lightweighting products. In 2024, 47% of Trivium’s total revenue came from ecodesigned products, moving them closer to their target of 50% by 2030. These efforts align with growing consumer demand for sustainable packaging and stricter regulations such as the European Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR).

Recognition for innovation: Trivium’s teams received 12 awards from industry associations across business segments in 2024, underscoring the company’s technical and sustainable innovation leadership. Among these recognitions are the retention of the Platinum rating by EcoVadis for the fourth year in a row, a spot on CDP’s A List for Climate, and multiple product awards in the categories of sustainability and design across a variety of awards, including Pac Global and the Can of the Year Awards.

Adopting higher standards: Trivium remains in scope for its Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CRSD) target by January 1, 2027, despite the EU’s decision to delay the implementation of large companies. This report includes the gradual adoption of some of the new methodologies and terminology associated with CRSD. This proactive approach ensures transparency and comparability as Trivium continues to enhance its environmental and social performance.

By sharing its successes alongside the challenges facing companies globally, Trivium Packaging demonstrates that sustainability is not just a destination but an ongoing journey. As businesses face increasing scrutiny over their environmental promises, Trivium Packaging's candid approach sets a standard for accountability, proving that trust and responsibility are essential to driving meaningful change.
