Why Australia's New Climate-Related Disclosures Make Grounded Goods Your Best Partner

Starting in 2025, large Australian businesses must comply with mandatory climate-related disclosures. This move aligns with international standards and is designed to increase transparency and encourage companies to take meaningful action against the urgent climate crisis. For businesses, this shift is more than just an administrative task—it's a call to rethink their operations and supply chains. These disclosure measures make it essential to work with businesses that can report and share the packaging they supply. Let's explore this more deeply to understand what these mandates mean for you.

What Are Climate-Related Disclosures?

Climate-related disclosures require businesses to report their greenhouse gas emissions, climate-related risks, and how they manage them. This initiative aligns with frameworks like the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). It aims to provide stakeholders with clear insights into how businesses address their environmental impact. It's no longer enough for companies to discuss sustainability—they must back it up with data.

Why Climate Transparency Matters

Consumers and investors are increasingly prioritising businesses that demonstrate genuine environmental responsibility. Transparent reporting isn't just about compliance; it's about building trust and securing a competitive edge in a market where sustainability is necessary and a key driver of business growth. For businesses looking to meet these new requirements, every aspect of their operations will be scrutinised—from sourcing materials to packaging and waste management.
