Sustainability
How we’re pioneering Dairy for the good of people, planet, and cows that make A1 protein free milk possible.
Shaping a Sustainable Future for Dairy
At The a2 Milk Company, sustainability is a part of who we are. Our purpose is simple: to provide high-quality dairy nutritional products while caring for people, planet and cows so the benefits of A1 protein free milk can be enjoyed for generations to come.
We recognise our responsibility to create a positive impact for our farmers, investors, consumers, partners and our own people. Transparency and trust matter, which is why sustainability is embedded into our strategy.
Across our value chain we see opportunities to make a difference through reducing greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to nature, promoting animal welfare, driving circularity for packaging and reducing waste, supporting the communities in which we operate, and ensuring responsible sourcing and ethical practices throughout our supply chain.
As a science-led dairy company that strives to pioneer the future of Dairy for good, we are working with our partners to shift the industry toward better outcomes for people, planet and cows. Sustainability strengthens our resilience and supports long-term value, enabling us to continue nourishing communities today and for years to come.
What We’re Focused On Today, For Tomorrow
Our approach brings together scientific rigour and practical action. With input from farmers, employees, consumers and partners, we’ve identified five sustainability focus areas where we can make the greatest impact.
Climate and Nature
Working to reduce emissions, support biodiversity and contribute to nature positive outcomes.
Thriving Farms
Partnering with farmers to strengthen sustainable practices and cow welfare on-farm, to build a resilient supply chain.
Sustainable Packaging
Improving circularity by using recyclable materials, increasing use of recycled content and providing clear, accurate on-pack information to enhance packaging recovery.
Responsible Supply Chain
Sourcing ingredients and materials responsibly, with a focus on human rights and ethical practices.
Enriching Communities
Supporting children, families and our farming communities to thrive.
Working Together for a Sustainable Future
We believe progress happens when we work together. Collaboration is at the heart of how we approach sustainability - because creating meaningful change is bigger than any one company.
That’s why we partner across the dairy sector and beyond - with farmers, suppliers, customers, researchers, NGOs, and governments - to share knowledge, learn from others, and find better ways forward. Through these partnerships and our shared commitment, we aim to create a more responsible dairy industry and ensure products made with A1 protein free milk can be enjoyed for generations to come.
Let’s Protect What Makes Dairy Possible
Our commitment to sustainability is grounded in a simple idea: dairy should be good for people and communities while minimising its impact on the planet. By investing in science, partnering with farmers and focusing on long-term value, we are building a future of dairy that can thrive for generations.
