When Responsibility Meets Sustainability, Good Things Happen

Our Philosophy

At Avery Dennison, we believe in achieving sustainable business success through responsible economic, social and environmental practices that help build healthy communities around the world. Our aim is to find a balance between business activities that benefit our shareholders, customers and employees and policies that both improve the quality of life for our communities and conserve the world’s natural resources.

What Avery Dennison Is Doing

Here at the Retail Branding and Information Solutions Division, we actively participate in the Carbon Disclosure Project that promotes greenhouse gas emission reduction projects. In addition, our business teams work to identify opportunities to make our products more eco-friendly. Twenty-six of our printing facilities have attained Forest Stewarship Council (FSC ) Chain of Custody certification and are therefore independently certified to produce paper products made from responsibly managed forests. This year we also announced our participation in the Cotton Made in Africa project, which supports farmers in some of the poorest regions of Africa. Finally, to guide and focus our efforts, a company-wide Sustainability Core Team works towards the goal of making sustainability an integral part of everything we do.
