Tosca Publishes 2024 Sustainability Report, Driving Transformational Sustainability Impact
Tosca, a global leader in reusable packaging solutions, is proud to announce the release of its 2024 Sustainability Report. This comprehensive document highlights the company’s progress in 2023, outlining its efforts to drive transformative sustainability impact across its operations and through deepening customer partnerships. The report reinforces Tosca’s position at the forefront of the reusable packaging revolution.
With sustainability at the heart of Tosca’s mission, the 2024 report showcases how the company has supported its customers in achieving ambitious environmental goals while simultaneously reducing operational waste. It highlights Tosca’s use of cutting-edge technologies, operational innovations, and commitment to developing its workforce, all of which drive meaningful sustainability outcomes.
“At Tosca, sustainability remains at the core of our DNA,” says Eric Frank, Chief Executive Officer. “In 2023, our ‘all together better’ sustainability strategy generated impressive results as we worked together in customer partnerships, operational excellence and team engagement. We have made significant progress, but above all else, I am personally proud of the ongoing commitment of all of Tosca’s stakeholders to the betterment of people and planet, individually and together.”
Tosca’s 2023 Sustainability Achievements
In 2023, Tosca made significant strides in reducing its environmental impact and operational waste. The company achieved a 37.8 percent reduction in carbon emissions intensity by revenue and achieved Ecovadis ISO Platinum standard accreditation in EMEA – a reflection of its relentless pursuit of operational excellence. It diverted 284,000 metric tons of cardboard from global supply chains, contributing to a total diversion of over 2.4 million metric tons since 2000 through customers’ adoption of its reusables. This result underscores Tosca’s ability to optimise its operations, working effectively in partnership with its customers, while driving sustainability forward. It has also continued to invest in attracting talented people and providing opportunities for team members to develop their careers. The attendance of skills training of 100% of staff is a testament to this commitment.
“As an industry leader, our mission to revolutionise the flow of goods through the food supply chain, eliminating waste at every turn creates a global ripple effect for achieving sustainability goals for our customers and beyond. That’s why we’re relentless about seeking new ways to help our customers move to reusable packaging while increasing the resiliency of our organisation,” says Karin Witton, Global Sustainability Director.
Customer Partnerships Driving Sustainability
Tosca works with customers as a trusted partner, aiming to generate transformative change through the opportunities that end-to-end supply chain optimisation can unlock. Its support extends beyond the supply of sustainable pooling and reusable packaging assets to include consulting on related areas, such as navigating new regulations, identifying supply chain applications of emergent technologies, and helping customers implement automated environments.
In 2023, Tosca partnered with Simpsons Beverages to address supply, safety and sustainability challenges. By transitioning to Tosca’s Superior Hybrid Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) for liquid and pooling model, it achieved enhanced sustainability and operational efficiency, while reducing overall costs. This collaboration also positioned Simpsons Beverages for future growth and environmental compliance.
Tosca’s vision for the future – at the Forefront of the Reusable Revolution
Tosca has a bold vision to harness data, increase digitisation and partner with customers using its expertise to reduce food waste, emissions and costs. It aims to move to a more integrated approach to packaging which supports the elimination of single-use alternatives by leveraging reusable secondary and tertiary packaging.
In 2025 and beyond, Tosca will continue to advocate for regulatory changes that prioritise reusable assets and pooling services over recycling packaging wherever possible as a more sustainable alternative, and push for exemptions from packaging taxes for reusables. It will also leverage innovations such as Tosca Asset IQ to minimise food damage, improve stock control, and enhance sustainability throughout the supply chain. Working in partnership with customers, Tosca will support them in their sustainability journey by providing advice and data to help limit Scope 3 emissions, reduce costs and bring their goods to market. With its clear vision, Tosca will continue to lead the reusable revolution.
