By working with us, you can take positive climate action

UPM Raflatac will be the world's first label materials company that is committed to going beyond fossils, designing better solutions for the packaging industry. For us, going beyond fossils means that we reduce or replace virgin fossil sources of carbon that add carbon burden to the carbon cycle.

The first step is to reduce emissions and start emitting less carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. The most efficient way to do this is by taking a 360° life-cycle approach to mitigating our climate impact. From responsible sourcing and sustainable operations to innovative, sustainable products and services, we apply the principles of reduce, recycle, renew and reuse. Our commitment affects all of our solutions and has a positive impact on our customers' products.

As part of UPM, we have joined other leading companies in a promise to pursue science-based measures to limit the global temperature rise to 1.5°C.

We want to actively drive the change and collaborate with scientifically credible partners and organizations to reach the highest possible positive impact on climate and people. UPM Raflatac is working together with organizations such as Climate Impact Partners, Sphera, and The Carbon Trust to monitor and improve the level of climate impact, and we are committed to the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s Global Commitment in the New Plastics Economy that aims to transform plastic packaging towards a circular economy.

Ultimately, we are part of the solution to the climate crisis. Together with our partners and your help, we can take positive climate action and create a smarter future beyond fossils.
