ULMA Packaging Joins the United Nations Global Compact

Jun 23, 2026
ULMA Packaging has joined the United Nations Global Compact, the world’s largest corporate sustainability initiative, launched in 2000 and with more than 25,000 participating entities in over 160 countries.

With this membership, we commit to aligning our Corporate Sustainability Strategy with the Global Compact’s universally accepted Ten Principles in the areas of human rights, labour standards, the environment and anti-corruption, as well as to continuing to make progress on initiatives that contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Our participation in this initiative represents a new step forward on the path we have been following for years to integrate sustainability into our activity, from an environmental, social and governance perspective. This commitment forms part of our cooperative identity and our desire to generate a positive impact on people, the environment and society.

A Commitment Connected to Initiatives

Joining the Global Compact strongly reinforces our 2027–2030 Strategic Sustainability Plan, which we will activate through 6 key ESG Strategic Axes:

  • Towards Neutrality
  • WeCare – Sustainable Packaging Solutions
  • Talent Management and Development
  • Safety, Health and Wellbeing
  • Responsible Supply Chain
  • Ethics, Management and Good Governance

Through the development of these ESG Strategic Axes, our cooperative will directly contribute to the achievement of, among others, 8 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs):

  • SDG 3 - Good Health and Wellbeing
  • SDG 5 - Gender Equality
  • SDG 8 - Decent Work and Economic Growth
  • SDG 10 - Reduced Inequalities
  • SDG 12 - Responsible Consumption and Production
  • SDG 13 - Climate Action
  • SDG 16 - Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions
  • SDG 17 - Partnerships for the Goals.

Cooperative Identity and Social Engagement

Social responsibility has been part of our identity since our origins. As a cooperative, we were founded with the aim of generating employment, prosperity and development in the society in which we participate.

In line with this cooperative spirit, a significant percentage of the results of our business activity is returned to society through the Contribution for Cooperative Education and Promotion and Other Public Interest Purposes.

By joining the United Nations Global Compact, we join thousands of companies around the world that are committed to promoting responsible business initiatives to contribute to sustainable development, leading the transition towards a more responsible, inclusive and environmentally respectful business model.
