Tosca Launches First Annual ESG Report

December 1, 2022 By Rick LeBlanc

Tosca, ESG report, RPCs
Up to 75% of freshwater needed for the RPC wash cycle has been replaced using final rinse water in pre-wash operations.

ATLANTA – Tosca, a global leader in reusable plastic packaging and performance pooling solutions, has launched its inaugural Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Report: All Together Better.

The defined goals point to Tosca’s pledge to continue to advance the company’s own sustainability efforts as well as through close partnerships with their customers as well.

Tosca’s first ESG report maps out Tosca’s commitments and goals to 2030, These are encompassed in Tosca’s sustainability strategy and highlight key sustainability achievements from across the company to date.

The All Together Better sustainability strategy and Tosca’s exciting ambitions support their wider goal of a more sustainable business by 2050 are housed in three pillars. These include:

Together in customer partnership

  • Continuing to expand Tosca’s pool of reusable assets that supports customers’ ability to reduce wasted food, materials, miles, space and labor.

Together in operational excellence

  • Collaborating to drive internal progress toward reducing emissions, energy, waste, and water use.

Together in team engagement

  • Growing an empowered, inspired workforce that is engaged and committed to our goals.

“Sustainability has always been in our DNA – it is at the forefront of the value our products and services provide for our partners, and it is who we are as an organization.” said Eric Frank, CEO of Tosca. “As our mission statement indicates, we are revolutionizing the flow of goods through the food supply chain, eliminating waste at every turn. This year we went one step further with our mission by formalizing sustainability goals, so I am incredibly excited to share Tosca’s first sustainability report.”

“We are continually amazed at the way our team members across the organization embrace sustainability, identifying and building improvements into their everyday activities, often without realizing how much they do in moving the needle for Tosca to become increasingly more sustainable,” added Karin Witton, Global Director of Sustainability for Tosca.

Examples of achievements to date include:

  • As of September 2022, Tosca has removed 1.9 million metric tons of corrugated from supply chains since they began issuing RPCs in 2000.
  • By switching to Tosca RPCs, Tosca’s seafood customers save 2,000,000+ foam cases from ending up in landfill annually.
  • 100% of total plastic asset waste is diverted from landfill and predominantly reused to create new Tosca assets.
  • Up to 75% of freshwater needed for the wash cycle has been replaced by using final rinse water in pre-wash operations.
  • Tosca’s new Sint-Niklaas wash facility in Belgium has 1,200 solar panels, which, between March and December 2021, generated nearly 325,000 kWh – enough to power over 30 US homes for a year.
  • 1,224 Tosca team members attended one or more training sessions through a new Learning Management System (LMS) and training library with an average of five training hours per learner.
  • Partnering with over 15 retailers to get donated perishable items to a network of 90 food banks using Tosca RPCs. Over 160,000 RPCs were used for this initiative in 2021.
