„Brew a better world“
OUR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY

As part of HEINEKEN’s global sustainability strategy “Brew a Better World,” Brau Union Österreich is continuously implementing measures at multiple locations—both in logistics and production—to further reduce and optimize water and energy consumption. For example, Brau Union Österreich invests in the installation of photovoltaic systems, heat pumps and collaborates with district heating cooperatives and biogas plants. Brau Union Österreich purchases its electrical power exclusively from renewable sources from Austria.*

In regards to social engagement, we aim to ensure fair and safe working conditions and to strengthen our positive impact on society.  We also take responsibility towards consumers by promoting responsible alcohol consumption.**

Under the new EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), Heineken is subject to reporting obligations, but Brau Union Österreich AG is not. Therefore, all relevant information, figures, and KPIs from Brau Union Österreich are included in Heineken’s sustainability report.
