From discerning consumers to astute investors, the call for businesses to act sustainably is louder than ever before.
As pioneers in our industry, we are determined to reshape the ESG performance of our business while inspiring others to follow suit.
Guided by our Thriving in the Circular Economy strategy, we have established goals that amplify our inherent commitment to sustainability. Our trajectory is one of responsibility, resilience and profitability – with an unwavering dedication to the wellbeing of our workforce, our communities and our planet.

At the heart of our business sit robust Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) principles – principles we’ve followed since the very beginning. Through our ESG Report FY23, we reflect on our latest efforts to advance against key ESG issues and our goals.
IFCO’s report encompasses activities and quantitative data from the fiscal year (July 1, 2022–June 30, 2023) across our global operations, including owned and third-party sites. We have based it around our most material topics, identified through a materiality assessment conducted in FY21.
We are dedicated to communicating transparently and have produced this report according to the requirements of leading standards:
IFCO is a signatory to the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) and its ten principles in the areas of human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption. We are also dedicated to contributing to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Additionally, we have committed to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), allowing us to set, and track progress against, carbon emissions targets in line with the Paris agreement.
