Our Commitment to Setting a Science Based-Target
This latest commitment builds on our progress as a sustainability leader. And, our promise to Bettering the Planet, one of three main areas where we can make a difference.
Serving the people we rely on and those who rely on us.
Connecting people to products begins with people.
As we drive toward a more circular economy, it’s our teammates and communities that will move us forward.
We are taking action to protect the health and safety of our team members because together, we are the connection.
We celebrate diversity and strive for every team member to feel safe, valued, heard and a true sense of belonging.
Championing sustainable forestry and protecting the environment.
For more than a century, WestRock has worked to responsibly source fiber and promote healthy forests, recognizing the important part they play in slowing climate change by sequestering carbon, providing clean water and maintaining diversity of plant and animal species.
We are proud of our role in ensuring that forests remain forests.
Innovating to achieve a more circular economy.
We take pride in our innovative spirit and in creating cutting-edge solutions for our customers to deliver innovations in materials science and automation, producing packaging that is right sized, renewable, recyclable and compostable.
We take seriously our role in the broader supply chain, innovating to inspire a packaging industry that sits at the center of a more circular economy.
Building on a proud legacy in responsible forestry, we believe the promise of a sustainable future begins with healthy forests. We are committed to working with family landowners like Ben Myers and Wayne Wolford to support sustainable forestry, ensuring environmental and economic benefits for our communities.
