Jac. Vandenberg has been named as a finalist in the Product Innovation category for their PackNatur® Home Compostable netting in the 2023 Reuters Responsible Business Awards.

The Reuters Responsible Business Awards are the world’s leading Awards celebrating leadership in sustainable business. It’s more than acknowledging excellent sustainability strategies. The Responsible Business Awards recognize those that are truly having an impact on business, society and the environment – delivering a new blueprint for business in the 21st Century.

The Product Innovation award, for which Vandenberg has been named a finalist, will go to a company that has developed an innovative product offering that is helping address a critical social or environmental challenge. This product or service, now part of the core business model or strategy, must challenge the status quo.

"We are thrilled to have made it to the finalist stage of these awards," says John Paap, Sustainability Manager at Jac. Vandenberg. "To be recognized among a pool of leading brands and organizations around the world is a real honor for our company. We may not have the same resources as a Fortune 500 company but we are extremely passionate about building a brighter future for people and planet. This is proof that even a small, 4th generation family owned business can bring big, impactful change for a brighter future".

Winners of the awards will be announced in London on November 1, 2023.
