BERLIN Packaging has announced that its net zero greenhouse gas emissions goals have been officially validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
The move places the firm among a select group of companies worldwide with climate aims aligned to the 1.5°C pathway.
Berlin Packaging revealed it is committed to achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 2050.
The company’s validated targets include reducing Scope 1 & 2 emissions by 44.8% by 2030, and by 90% by 2050 (from a 2022 baseline). Berlin also aims to reduce Scope 3 emissions intensity by 51.6% by 2030, and by 97% by 2050 (per US dollar of revenue, from 2022 baseline).
The company added that it has already reduced Scope 1 & 2 emissions by over 23% since 2022, established a Scope 3 reduction strategy, helped more than 80 brands launch sustainable packaging solutions, and supplied nearly 13,000 metric tons of post-consumer recycled material.
“SBTi validation is more than a milestone — it’s independent proof that our climate goals are real, measurable, and aligned with the highest global standards,” said Balaji Jayaseelan, VP of sustainability at Berlin Packaging. “Our customers and partners count on us to lead with ambition and deliver results that help them achieve their own sustainability goals. This recognition energises us to keep pushing boundaries and building a future where business growth and climate leadership go hand in hand.”
