Nine months after achieving zero non-hazardous waste to landfill across its global network of 242 factories, Unilever has announced it has become a zero landfill company in Europe. This means that in addition to manufacturing facilities, no waste from Unilever-owned or fully operated premises, logistic operations, distribution centers or offices, goes to landfill in Europe.
Unilever outlined its ambition to become a zero waste to landfill company in January 2015. The European operation is the first to meet this new target with 63 additional facilities now sending zero waste to landfill. Unilever is aiming to become a zero waste company globally by the end of the year, and is also continuing to work towards a zero waste value chain.
