dc.description.abstractThis research presents a comparative analysis of the sustainability performance of four prominent companies within the paper and paper-based packaging industry. Utilizing established sustainability indicators encompassing environmental, social, and economic dimensions, the study evaluated company performance based on publicly available data from their sustainability reports and disclosures. The findings revealed a diverse landscape of sustainability commitments and achievements, highlighting both shared industry-wide trends and company-specific approaches to sustainability management. All four companies demonstrated a strong commitment to waste management and circular economy principles, while also exhibiting varying degrees of progress in areas, such as renewable energy adoption, carbon emissions reductions, employee well-being, and social responsibility initiatives. The analysis further identified opportunities for improvement and highlighted the need for greater transparency, data disclosure, and industry collaboration to enhance overall sustainability performance and contribute to a more sustainable future for the paper and paper-based packaging sector. By examining the similarities and differences in the sustain- ability journeys of these four companies, this study provides valuable insights for industry stakeholders, policymakers, and researchers interested in promoting sustainable development within the paper and packaging industry and beyond.
