CURRENT HIGHLIGHTS
COMPOSTABLE
PACKAGING
Our banana team has
developed a
completely new style
of packaging that is
fully recyclable and
compostable.
Switching to this new
product will save an
estimated 800,000
plastic bags per year.
AVOIDING FOOD WASTE
TO LANDFILL
Costa donated 294 tonnes of
produce to Foodbank,
Australia's largest food relief
organisation.
By avoiding disposal to landfill,
the estimated avoided lifetime
carbon emmissions in 2020
were equivalent to 617.4 tonnes
of CO2-e.
FOOD
BANK
CROP UTILISATION
110 tonnes of Costa and partner grown
avocados, not suitable for retail and
wholesale customers, was supplied to
Austchilli for their AvoFresh range, resulting
in an estimated avoided lifetime carbon
emissions equivalent to 231 tonnes of CO2-e.
RECYCLING
572 tonnes of cardboard collected
for recycling from Tomoto
glasshouses.
450 tonnes of mushroom growing
trays recycled into bark and garden
mulch.
Reduction in use of 300,000 plastic
cups.
SUGARCANE PULP
PACKAGING
In 2020 our Tomato category launched a sweet berry
truss tomato pack made from sugarcane pulp.
Sugar cane pulp packaging is made from the pulp of
the sugarcane plant, and is extremely durable,
lightweight and biodegrades in 30-90 days once
exposed to composting conditions.
The packaging is carbon neutral and contains 90 per
cent less plastic than a traditional APET clamshell
punnet.
