Huhtamaki<\/a>, a provider of sustainable packaging solutions, has embarked on a pioneering initiative to assess and mitigate nature-related risks across its operations in India.<\/p>\n

The company is claimed to be the first in the country to formally pilot assessments of its impact on nature.<\/p>\n

This year, the company\u2019s ten factories in India have undergone a comprehensive biodiversity-based risk assessment, utilising the LEAP approach under the Task Force on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) guidelines.<\/p>\n

These assessments were aimed at identifying potential business risks and opportunities related to biodiversity and have considered impacts on marine life and terrestrial flora and fauna.<\/p>\n

From these assessments, Huhtamaki has pinpointed three focus sites requiring concentrated efforts to mitigate potential biodiversity impacts.<\/p>\n

These sites will undergo further opportunity mapping and the creation of site-specific biodiversity risk mitigation plans.<\/p>\n
