\u201eIt's great that our sustainability strategy has won. We are convinced that we are making an important contribution to climate protection. The aim of our No Waste Vision is to avoid product, packaging and operational waste. To achieve this, we are involving the entire Coveris organisation in its implementation - from production and the Group-wide Green Teams to management level and the Executive Board. The award we received and the fact that two other Coveris products were among the finalists makes us very proud. Above all, this is an honour for our employees. Because they work with great commitment every day to realise our vision of a more sustainable future.\u201c<\/p>
