Pawi Group AG publishes environmental report 2023
Pawi Group AG has published its Environmental Report 2023, which provides a comprehensive insight into the company's progress in the areas of energy management, circular economy and social sustainability. As a provider of packaging solutions in the food and non-food sectors, Pawi is committed to realizing a holistically sustainable future.
Energy management is a key focus of the sustainability strategy. The decision to connect to district heating in Winterthur (Switzerland) and the use of photovoltaics in Singen (Germany) are key measures to reduce the ecological footprint. Another focus is on developing more sustainable packaging solutions. For example, Pawi is working with ETH Zurich to develop soy water-based films for paper see-through bags. "Our aim is to make a significant contribution to environmental protection by using renewable energies and efficient technologies," explains Edoardo Finotti, Co-CEO Operations at Pawi Packaging Schweiz AG.
Pawi has also made great progress in the area of social sustainability by introducing the sociocratic organizational structure at the production site in Singen. This structure aims to promote a positive corporate culture and strengthen employee participation and responsibility. "The introduction of sociocracy enables us to create a working environment in which every voice is heard and every employee can actively participate in decision-making," says Ralf Kautzmann, Managing Director of Pawi Packaging Deutschland GmbH.
Long-term goals and commitment
PAWI reaffirms its long-term commitment to the environment and society. In addition to the goal of contributing to CO2-Science Based Targets (SBTi) will be introduced in the medium term to help the city of Winterthur achieve carbon neutrality by 2040. Other measures include a planned roof renovation including photovoltaic installation at the production site in Winterthur and the integration of electric trucks into the vehicle fleet.
