Aptar Recognized as One of America’s Climate Leaders by USA Today for the Fourth Consecutive Year

CRYSTAL LAKE, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AptarGroup, Inc. (NYSE: ATR), a global leader in drug delivery, including dosing and protection technologies, and consumer product dispensing, announced today that has been named one of America’s Climate Leaders by USA Today for the fourth consecutive year.

“This recognition reflects the dedication of our teams worldwide and our long-term commitment to sustainability and climate action,” said Beth Holland, Chief Sustainability Officer at Aptar. “We continue to focus on meaningful emissions reductions and creating innovative solutions that support a more sustainable future.”

Aptar’s approach to environmental stewardship is grounded in reducing its climate impact. Since its 2019 baseline year, Aptar has achieved significant reductions in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions and continues to advance initiatives supporting renewable energy, circularity and climate resilience across its global operations. The company has established science-based targets for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions that align with limiting global warming to 1.5° Celsius by 2030, along with targets for renewable electricity use and Scope 3 emissions. These targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi).

Notably, Aptar has been recognized for its leadership on climate change topics by the global environmental non-profit CDP, securing a place on its prestigious “A List” for the second consecutive year. In addition, Aptar has been named as a Supplier Engagement Leader by CDP since 2020 cited for its contributions to emissions reductions throughout the value chain. Aptar has also strengthened its climate-related risk and opportunity disclosures in line with the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD), reporting on these topics annually. Progress toward these goals is supported by Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) in Europe and the United States, enabling access to locally sourced renewable energy dedicated to Aptar.
