ZERO

Farming Footprint

Agricultural cultivation provides us with essential raw materials for our beer production, such as barley and hops. It is no coincidence, therefore, that agriculture is a key pillar of our sustainable development strategy.

By 2040, our goal is for 100% of our raw materials to come from sustainable farming and processing practices. These materials should be sourced from farms certified at least at the "Bronze" level by the Farm Sustainability Assessment (FSA), which is supported by the Sustainable Agriculture Initiative Platform (SAI Platform), or from farms certified under equivalent standards.

At the same time, as a vital link in our value chain, our company’s suppliers are required to sign and comply with the Carlsberg Group Supplier Code of Conduct, which sets specific standards that all our partners must adhere to.

ZERO Water Waste

ZERO Water Waste

Water is an extremely valuable natural resource and an essential key ingredient in our products, while other key ingredients, such as grain and hops, need it to grow. Therefore, its conservation is a great responsibility as well as a necessity for us.
