Sustainability

At LNS Private Label we aim to promote health with a nutritional solution adapted for every situation while also being a player in sustainable development.

OUR PURPOSE:

Promoting health with a nutritional solution adapted for every situation.

Climate Action in the Food & Beverage Sector

Climate change has emerged as one of the major challenges of our time. The Food & Beverage sector, along with its upstream Agricultural component, are considered key actors when it comes to bringing positive solutions to curb carbon emissions and build resilience to production systems throughout the value chain. As one of the world’s leaders in the Food & Beverage sector, and the biggest dairy company, the Lactalis Group believes that our size is a strength that presents opportunities to tackle climate change.

By embracing the Lactalis Group’s CSR policy to promote sustainable development and eco-friendly behavior and adapting it to its own business activities, LNS aims to reduce its impact on the environment. Aligned with the United Nations Global Compact, of which the group is an active Participant, Lactalis Group’s CSR policy and commitments are divided and organized in 3 different axes:
