Custom Reporting
How Does Custom Reporting Work?
There are two ways to create your custom Molson Coors corporate responsibility report. You can browse the Responsibility section of our website and select Add to My Report for topics that interest you; or, you can go to our custom report builder (link to report builder page) and check the box next to each topic to prepare a report built just for you.
Environmental Stewardship:
Packaging
The majority of our primary packaging materials are recyclable, refillable, and/or light weighted, which reduces materials used to package and ship our products and also results in cost savings associated with transportation. Our bottles and cans all include recycled materials. Some are up to 75% recycled content.
In Canada, an average of 98% of our bottles and 83% of cans are returned to points of sale by consumers, who are also invited to return the cardboard packaging
Returned materials are either reused or recycled. Each year this saves landfills from millions of pounds of glass, aluminum, and corrugated cardboard.
When designing new products and packages, environmental considerations are part of the process. Employees at all levels are encouraged to share ideas for improving processes and reducing our impact on the environment.
In 2006 we redesigned the Grolsch bottle to be narrower, more tapered and with a smaller label. All Molson Coors brands are now packaged in this redesigned bottle, which has reduced the package weight by 13 percent.
In the UK, we were the 1st brewer to sign up to WRAP’s Courtauld Commitment and agreed to support their industry wide targets to design out packaging waste growth by 2008 (zero growth achieved in 2008); and to deliver absolute reductions in packaging waste by 2010 (this target is still ongoing). We also were a founding member to Courtauld Commitment 2 agreeing to support WRAP in their industry targets to reduce the carbon impact of this grocery packaging by 10%; to reduce UK household food and drink waste by 4%; and to reduce traditional grocery product and packaging waste in the grocery supply chain by 5% - including both solid and liquid wastes.
We have also been working with the OPRL (On Pack Recycling Label), by adding clear communication on where each element of our packaging can be recycled we can help consumers increase the amount that goes into the correct recycling bins.
