AMP recognised for strong sustainability
performance
LUXEMBOURG, Jan. 17,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Recently, CDP (formerly the
Carbon Disclosure Project), a non-profit environmental, social and
governance (ESG) rating agency, issued its updated ratings for
organisations around the world for 2022. Ardagh Metal Packaging
S.A. (AMP), a global supplier of beverage cans, was awarded a
leadership rating of A- for water management and a B rating for
climate change.
AMP, through such third-party verification, is building from the
inherent environmental advantages of infinitely recyclable beverage
cans, which are a perfect example of a circular economy with
recycled cans able to return to store shelves in their original
form in about 60 days.
AMP had previously secured ratings from CDP with Ardagh Glass
Packaging, both businesses of Ardagh Group. This was the first year
for an independent CDP rating and the company was benchmarked
against peer organisations in the metal manufacturers category.
"The positive CDP rating for AMP verifies we are on track in
delivering on our sustainability commitments," said Oliver Graham, CEO AMP. "We will maintain our
path toward environmental excellence as we consistently deliver on
objectives such as emissions, waste and water usage reduction.
Through this we will continue to serve as a leadership example in
our local communities and further support our customer's own
sustainability platforms."
CDP measures and assesses the risks and opportunities on climate
change, water security and forests. CDP included more stringent
scoring in 2022 in order to drive best practices, improve data
quality and better track organisations' alignment on limiting
global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius, and, per the Paris Agreement
of 2015, achieve net zero emissions by 2050. In 2022, more than
18,000 organisations around the world participated in the rating by
CDP.
