Operational Waste

McCormick's waste management goal seeks to recycle and recover 85% of solid waste from our facilities by 2030. We are making progress toward our goal by diverting waste through recycling streams and by composting food waste. Waste management draws on the logistical expertise of our staff to design site specific plans to manage waste based on local waste management infrastructure.

REDUCING WASTE ACROSS OUR FACILITIES



Operational Waste


In 2024, our global teams achieved a recycle or recover rate of approximately 75%. Operational waste management is unique to each site, and may integrate strategies such as reuse, waste diversion and circular products. The introduction of the UCBZeroWaste waste reduction program in North America in 2023, which includes diverting waste destined for landfill into relevant recycling streams, has been pivotal in improving our performance. We have made strategic investments in our operations focused on promoting recyclable, reusable, or repurposed packaging. These investments underscore our dedication to sustainable practices and the responsible management of material resources.
