News from Vinmonopolet
Vinmonopolet has the ambition to become one of Norway's best companies on sustainability. People's increasing environmental awareness creates expectations for our work and we have a responsibility to offer products that enable consumers to make sustainable choices. Social responsibility is also the basis when we request products that are certified Fairtrade or Fair for Life. At the same time, we will reduce the environmental impact in our own organization and in our supply chain.
Vinmonopolet has already announced that all tenders below NOK 150 must be delivered on light weight. In this plan, we dedicate a number of launches to environmentally-friendly packaging and we demand new packaging types, such as aluminum bottles in the specifications. There are also various types of environmentally-friendly packaging available on most tenders in this plan. Pant on aluminum and plastic will be important in the future. This will apply to most product types and will ensure that the packaging is recycled and does not end up in nature.
