1. Pillar

To achieve its goal, Coca-Cola HBC will take the following steps:

• by 2025, it will invest EUR 250 million in activities that will lead to a reduction in emissions,
• it will decarbonise manufacturing processes by transitioning to 100% renewable electricity and low-carbon energy sources through energy efficiency innovation;
• it will increase the share of rPET materials by adopting packaging-free or reusable solutions and eliminate plastics in secondary packaging,
• it will provide customers with energy-efficient and ecological refrigerators with SmartCool technology, 
• will reduce emissions from the natural ingredients it uses in its drinks
• it will implement the “Green fleet park”, programme to promote low- or no-carbon alternatives. 

Additionally, Coca-Cola HBC has implemented CO2 reduction targets as part of a long-term management compensation programme. 


Coca-Cola HBC is committed to science-based goals

Coca-Cola HBC is one of the first companies to commit to goals based on science-based findings. Already in the last decade, the company has halved its direct emissions, and the plan to reduce CO2 by 2030 is already in line with the ambition to prevent warming of more than 1.5 degrees against the pre-industrial era.

DUE TO COMPARISON WITH THE EXTRAORDINARY FIRST YEAR OF THE CORONAVIRUS CRISIS, MOST RATIO INDICATORS OF THE SUSTAINABILITY OF OUR PRODUCTION HAVE INCREASED. HOWEVER, IN TOTAL VOLUME, WE MANAGED TO REDUCE CO2 EMISSIONS IN THE ENTIRE VALUE CHAIN ​​BY 9,035 TONNES YEAR-ON-YEAR

Conscious of the impact of our activities on the environment, we strive to find sustainable solutions for current climate challenges.  

In accordance with the group environmental protection policy: 

• we reduce energy consumption in our operations, 
• we use alternative or renewable sources of energy, 
• we limit our own carbon footprint and support responsible projects, 
• we report emissions, current results and activities related to greenhouse gases in accordance with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol

REFRIGERATION REPLACEMENT IS AN ABSOLUTE KEY PART OF OUR CARBON NEUTRALITY PLAN. IN SCOPE 3, THEIR CARBON FOOTPRINT IS ONE OF THE MOST SIGNIFICANT FACTORS.
