Our ESG Approach

Brewing Tomorrow

Introduction text

In 2025, we delivered significant progress on our ESG agenda

We have reduced emissions at production sites and across the broader value chain, doubled the amount of water replenished at our sites in high-risk areas, and surpassed our 2030 target of 50% recycled content in bottles and cans. We have also seen strong developments in women in senior leadership, no- and low-alcohol brews and kept health and safety top of mind. Amid these developments, we have onboarded Britvic, the second-largest acquisition in Carlsberg’s history, into the Group. The significant progress in our organic development this year reflects our long-standing commitment to sustainability.

Check out some of our highlights below.
