Aptar today announced that it has been named one of the World’s Most Sustainable Companies 2025 by TIME. Aptar is ranked 244 out of 500 global companies evaluated by TIME and its partner Statista.
“We are proud to be named one of TIME’s World’s Most Sustainable Companies for the second year in a row,” said Stephan B. Tanda, Aptar President and CEO. “This recognition highlights our commitment to furthering a more sustainable future through increasing renewable energy use, creating more recyclable and reusable products and helping the world’s leading brands meet their sustainability commitments. Our global sustainability strategy helps to ensure that we attract and retain world class talent, prioritize responsible and forward-thinking actions and enhances our competitive positioning by leading with best practices and driving more sustainable innovations.”
The World’s Most Sustainable Companies 2025 ranking recognizes leading companies in corporate social responsibility from around the globe. Companies were evaluated in more than 20 key performance indicators related to sustainability, such as compliance with international reporting standards, emissions, or commitment to goals and initiatives. Based on this multi-layered analysis, a score was determined for each company. Out of over 5,000 of the world’s largest and most influential companies assessed, the top 500 were awarded based on revenue, market capitalization and public prominence.
As outlined in the Company’s 2024 Corporate Sustainability Report, Aptar has made considerable progress advancing key areas of its global sustainability strategy. Aptar achieved the Platinum level rating in recognition of its sustainability efforts from EcoVadis for the fifth consecutive year, placing the Company among the top 1% of the more than 150,000 companies rated by EcoVadis across all industries. In recognition of the Company’s actions to cut emissions, mitigate climate risks and further the low-carbon economy, Aptar was named to the global environmental non-profit CDP “A List”.
At year-end 2024, 97.5% of Aptar’s global electricity was from renewable sources. As a complement, Aptar entered into renewable supply agreements in Europe and North America to reinforce its commitment to sustainability and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and provide a more localized source of renewable energy dedicated to the Company. In addition, 86% of operational waste avoided disposal to landfill through reuse, recycling and recovery and over 60% of Aptar’s sites have earned Landfill Free Certification through Aptar’s internal program.
Aptar also partners with the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, the World Business Council for Sustainable Development, and others, and it continues to focus on circularity by increasing recycled resin content and aiming towards 100% recyclable, reusable, or compostable solutions across personal care, beauty, home care and food and beverage. The Company is also working towards more responsible products through collaboration with suppliers and partners.
