Crown<\/a> Holdings, a supplier of rigid packaging products, has announced a significant reduction in its scope 1 and scope 2 emissions by 16% for the year 2023 from the 2019 baseline.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This milestone was highlighted in the company\u2019s 2023 Sustainability Report, released yesterday (29 July).<\/p>\n

The report also noted a 28% decrease in scope 3 emissions since 2019, despite supply chain variations and business expansion.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As part of its Twentyby30 programme, Crown aims to cut absolute scope 1 and scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 50% by 2030, aligning with the overarching 1.5\u00b0C target.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Concurrently, Crown is targeting a 16% reduction in absolute scope 3 GHG emissions over the same period.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

In a move towards reducing material usage in packaging, Crown also managed to make its aluminium and steel cans 10% lighter in 2023.\u00a0<\/p>\n
