The Detmold Group has outlined its 2025-2050 sustainability goals to address climate impact, circularity, and environmental responsibility. The company plans to make 95 per cent of its packaging reusable, recyclable, or compostable, and achieve 50 per cent recycled content in its products by 2030.
“We’ve always been committed to sustainability, and these goals reflect our efforts to support a better future while helping our customers make environmentally conscious choices,” said Sascha Detmold Cox, CEO of the Detmold Group.
To reduce its carbon footprint, the group aims to source 30 per cent of its electricity from renewables by 2033 and cut Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 55 per cent compared to 2023 levels. As part of this effort, the Detmold Group has installed 1000 solar panels at its Heshan facility in China, generating over 574 MW of electricity annually. This follows the addition of rooftop solar panels at its Regency Park site in South Australia.
“These installations are critical steps in our journey to achieve our sustainability goals. We’re striving to improve continuously and scale up our environmental commitments,” said Detmold Cox.
The company’s environmental goals extend to responsible material sourcing, aiming for 95 per cent of its fibre to be FSC or PEFC certified by 2030. Detmold Group also plans to eliminate deforestation in its supply chain and ensure its products contain no intentionally-added PFAS.
Transparency and accountability are central to its strategy, with annual Carbon Disclosure Project reporting and ISO 14001-certified environmental management systems implemented across all sites.
“This roadmap positions the Detmold Group as a forward-thinking partner, creating sustainable packaging solutions for a better tomorrow,” said Detmold Cox. The company’s focus on circularity, nature conservation, and renewable energy will support both its customers and broader sustainability efforts.
