Supporting Sustainability in Our Communities

Caring for pets means caring for the communities they are part of. At Purina, we are committed to supporting initiatives that help create healthier environments for pets and people, while contributing to a more sustainable future.

Helping Keep Nature Clean and Accessible

Access to clean, safe outdoor spaces is important for pets and the people who care for them. We support initiatives that help maintain and improve these spaces, helping ensure communities can continue to enjoy the benefits of the outdoors.

Quality for Pets. Care for the Planet.

Our packaging plays an important role in keeping our pet food safe and fresh. We also recognise that packaging materials have an environmental impact. That is why we are working to design packaging that can be recycled and uses less plastic over time, while helping reduce our footprint and protecting the quality and nutrition pets need.

 

Reducing Packaging’s Impact

Design, Reduce, Recycle

Today, more than 95 percent of our plastic packaging is designed for recycling, a major step forward in reducing our impact. We are also working to reduce our use of virgin plastic, in part through incorporating more recycled content into our packaging. And when packaging is designed for recycling and collected and turned into something new, even more packaging can be kept in use.

Supporting System Improvements

Designing recyclable packaging and reducing waste can only go so far. We also support efforts to strengthen recycling systems so more packaging can be collected and reused.

 

We are supporting organisations and working in collaboration to help improve recycling systems, increase access to recycling and encourage the recovery of packaging materials.

Our Commitment to Climate Action

Our commitment to pets extends beyond quality food. It includes caring for the natural resources that support it. At Purina, we are     working to reduce our impact on the environment while helping build more resilient systems across our global supply chain.

 

Investing in Renewable Electricity
 

We source 100 percent of the electricity used across our manufacturing sites in Asia, Oceania and Africa from renewable sources. This is an important step in reducing emissions from our operations and supporting the transition to more sustainable energy systems.

A Big Investment in Solar Power

Our parent company, Nestlé, continues to invest in renewable energy to help power operations more efficiently.


Globally, we are increasing the use of electricity from renewable sources such as solar and wind across our operations.

Building Resilience for a Sustainable Future

 

Our commitment to pets goes beyond quality food. It extends to the ingredients that go into that food. By investing in regenerative agriculture, we aim to support farmers and help improve soil health, water conservation and biodiversity across our global supply chain. Our goal is a resilient system that supports pets, people and the planet.
 

Supporting Farmers. And Our Future.

Why Invest in Regenerative Practices?

 

Our commitment to regenerative agriculture and a resilient food system begins in the places where our ingredients are grown. By working closely with farmers globally, we support the adoption of regenerative practices that can improve soil health, biodiversity and water retention while helping reduce carbon emissions.

 

Regenerative practices also strengthen farms’ ability to withstand climate and environmental challenges, helping ensure a long term supply of quality, nutritious ingredients for pets everywhere.

Purina is helping scale regenerative practices across our global supply chain by supporting programs that work directly with farmers in regions where our ingredients are grown.

 

Globally, we invest approximately 30 million USD each year to support the adoption of regenerative agriculture practices. These programs provide farmers with tools and expertise to adopt practices that work in harmony with nature while supporting the long term resilience of farming systems.

 

This includes practices such as cover cropping, reduced tillage, crop rotation, and improved water and nutrient management.

Championing regenerative farming means investing not just in our ingredients, but in a sustainable future for pets, farmers and the planet.
