ACG Packaging Materials’ greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).

The SBTi, a collaboration between the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), World Resources Institute (WRI), and Worldwide Fund (WWF), provides a globally recognized framework for companies to set GHG reduction targets aligned with climate science. It specifies how much and how quickly emissions must be reduced to limit global warming to well below 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.

This validation aligns with ACG’s core philosophy of “Making it Better,” reinforcing its commitment to impactful progress toward a sustainable future.

ACG Packaging Materials has committed to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 90%. The company has also committed to reducing Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services, fuel and energy-related activities, and upstream transportation and distribution by 97% per ton of products produced within the same timeframe.

Speaking on this milestone, Karan Singh, Managing Director of ACG, said, “At ACG, we recognize that the future of the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries depends on our ability to innovate responsibly and operate sustainably. This validation provides us with a clear, science-backed framework to drive meaningful progress in reducing our environmental impact.

“As we move forward, our focus will be on integrating sustainable practices across our operations, investing in advanced technologies, and collaborating with stakeholders to build a resilient, low-carbon future. This milestone is a testament to our dedication to making it better while ensuring that our industry remains aligned with global climate goals.”
