Review summary

Tetra Pak has submitted its Approach to Nature to ‘It’s Now for Nature’ and met all the review criteria.

Reviewed June 2026

Tetra Pak’s materiality assessment addresses nature-related dependencies, impacts, risks and opportunities across the value chain.
Drivers of nature loss in Tetra Pak’s value chain include: land use change, direct exploitation of natural resources, climate change and pollution.
Sourcing of raw materials – particularly paperboard, other packaging materials, polymers, and aluminium foil were found to have the most significant negative impacts on nature.

- The company’s SMART targets cover their upstream, direct, and downstream operations as well as “transform” that covers nature restoration and voluntary initiatives.
- For example:
  - Upstream, their targets are by 2027, aim to achieve traceability to the product unit of origin or sourcing area for 100% of the paper-based materials, aluminium foil and plant-based polymers that are sourced from high-priority locations.
  - Tetra Pak aims to place 7,000 hectares of land under active restoration by 2030.

- Actions are aligned with the findings of their 2025 risk and opportunity assessment and spam across land, water, and circularity.
- Each target is accompanied with a description of implemented and planned actions.
- For example:
  - Tetra Pak will ensure that 100% of paper-based material originates from FCS-certified and other controlled substances and that 100% of plant-based polymers are Bonsucro-certified.
  - Tetra Pak will work with high-impact suppliers to reduce total water withdrawal intensity in the upstream value chain

The Nature Approach is an inherent part of Tetra Pak strategy owned and approved by their executive leadership team which oversees its implementation.
