Unilever Global Change location
We’re taking steps towards a waste-free world through the Unilever Compass.
We’re cutting plastic waste by using less plastic, better plastic or no plastic at all – and calling for a fast transition to a circular economy.
And we’re on the front line in the fight against food waste – in our factories and on people’s plates.
Our goals are ambitious – but they have to be to overcome the challenges and make our brands superior in every way.
As a consumer goods company, we’re acutely aware of the impact of today’s “take-make-dispose” model – where products are made, bought, used briefly, then thrown away.
We need to shift from this linear view to a circular economy where resources are reused and kept in a closed loop system.
And we need to do it quickly. We’re using our voice and experience to call for a fast transition to a circular economy, and working with others to build co-ordinated action.
Find out about the actions we're taking through the Unilever Compass to deliver our Waste-free world goals.
We’re completely rethinking our approach to packaging to use less, better or no plastic.
Plastic pollution is too big for us to solve alone. We’re advocating for systems change to create a circular economy for plastics.
We’ve spent more than a decade reducing waste and recycling in our operations. We’re still striving to do better and find innovative ways to keep resources in use for longer.
No one should experience daily hunger and undernourishment, and especially not in a world where billions of tonnes of edible food is wasted each year. We're working for a future where zero food is wasted.
Our focus on driving bigger, better and more impactful innovation delivered over €1 billion of incremental turnover in 2021, double the delivery in 2020. Here are just a few examples of our innovation in action.
