We are actively focused on the reduction of our energy footprint internally and externally. Our site practices include energy efficient lighting, heating conservation, air conditioning and ventilation efficiencies. Externally, Pactiv strives to produce and transport its products with as minimal investment in energy usage as possible.
Source Reduction and Management
We recognize the need to consume less valuable raw materials while continuing to deliver high quality products that meet customer needs. Pactiv is committed to exploring the use of alternative resources that can be used to provide highly functional and useful products. Our efforts include reviewing product functionality versus design for such opportunities to reduce material usage and to use recycled material, including post-consumer material, in our products where appropriate.
Waste Reduction and Management
We are committed to reducing the solid waste in our operations. We are a leader in our commitment to recycling materials throughout production processes and in the use of recycled materials in manufacturing. We recycle 90% of our plastic manufacturing process scrap directly into our products and recycle aluminum, corrugated, scrap metals and remaining plastic scrap through suppliers and recycling services.
