Glass packaging company Croxsons is promoting a new sustainability campaign, reiterating its commitment to environmental stewardship.

As part of this initiative, Croxsons is focusing on major sustainability efforts, including promoting the use of and planning for zero-carbon furnaces for glass production, which are part of the UK’s broader aim to achieve net zero emissions by 2050.

The company is planning for a rapid transition from traditional natural gas furnaces to those powered entirely by renewable electricity and hydrogen. This would substantially reduce the carbon footprint of its manufacturing processes.

Croxsons has partnered with Ecologi to fund global climate initiatives and has already planted 150,000 trees to combat deforestation and climate change, as well as offsetting the carbon footprint of its entire team. This undertaking highlights the company’s pledge to undo decades of carbon damage and provide tangible benefits to the environment, meeting 13 of the UN sustaintability development goals.

“Our commitment to sustainability is central to our operations,” said Tim Croxon, Croxons’ chief executive.

“We are not just adjusting to a better way of doing business, we have to make sure that we are playing our part in ensuring that the packaging industry contributes positively to the planet’s future.”
