BEWI launches new sustainability strategy to lead the change towards a circular economy

BEWI, a leading provider of packaging, components, and insulation solutions, today launches its sustainability strategy. The company’s sustainability vision is a circular economy and an inclusive society. The strategy to approach this covers the company’s entire value chain with promises for 2030.

The strategy outlines an ambitious and long-term agenda for BEWI that will inspire, activate, and lead the company in decision-making to reach the sustainability goals. Achieving the goals will require a willingness to adapt and the courage to challenge traditional and established ways of running the business.

“Our new sustainability strategy includes specific targets for our sustainability work. However, leading the change towards a circular economy has been a strategic priority for the group for many years and with our vision to protect people and goods for a better everyday, we are already committed to integrating sustainability in every aspect of our business,” says Christian Bekken, CEO of BEWI ASA.

BEWI’s strategic approach to sustainability is based on three pillars:

  • Becoming circular: To be a circular business built on renewable energy
  • Actively engage in partnerships: Being an active and responsible partner so that we together with stakeholders achieve a circular economy, operating within our planet’s planetary boundaries
  • Contribute to an inclusive society: Create a positive social impact for everyone across the BEWI value chain
