Addressing climate change
through the circular economy

Brambles’ sustainability credentials are founded in its circular ‘share and reuse’ model, which is inherently low carbon. Circular business models design out waste and pollution, keep products and materials in use, rather than using them up, and actively regenerate the natural systems they depend on.

Through its efforts to connect people to life’s essentials, Brambles reduces demand on natural resources, regenerates forests, eliminates waste for customers and reduces carbon emissions from the world’s supply chains. As a leader in the circular economy, Brambles understands its potential to address climate change and, if more broadly adopted, the vision for a low‑carbon future outlined in the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement, which Brambles supports, is far more probable.

Brambles’ response to the Task Force for Climate‑related Financial Disclosures (TCFD)

Brambles accepts climate science and recognises that climate change is influencing both short-term weather events and longer-term climatic trends. Climate-related physical impacts are also influencing society and economies, which is translating into policy and investment decisions as well as shifts in consumer behaviours. Responding to the specific challenges of climate change is intimately linked to Brambles’ focus on its circular ‘share and reuse’ model. Within this context, Brambles has responded to the recommendations of the 2017 TCFD, an initiative of the G20 Financial Stability Board. The TCFD supplement is an extension of the disclosure provided in Brambles’ FY20 Annual Report and provides our stakeholders with a more detailed narrative on how climate-related risks and opportunities could positively or negatively impact the financial circumstances of Brambles.
