SUSTAINABILITY
At Tucker’s Natural, sustainability isn’t just a commitment—it’s at the heart of everything we do. We believe in operating and developing our business in a way that protects our planet while creating products that genuinely enhance people’s lives.
Our Approach to Responsible Sourcing
We carefully select our ingredients and materials with sustainability as a key priority, ensuring every product meets our high standards for both quality and environmental responsibility. From farm to shelf, we’re dedicated to making choices that benefit both our customers and the planet.
Leading Innovation in Carbon Tracking
Tucker’s Natural was selected by SIEMENS to pilot their groundbreaking Sigreen platform, which identifies and tracks our carbon footprint across the entire supply chain. This cutting-edge technology helps us understand and minimize our environmental impact at every stage of production. Click here to find out more
Powering Our Future with Clean Energy
Our manufacturing operations are powered by a state-of-the-art 100kW commercial solar system, demonstrating our commitment to renewable energy and delivering significant Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) benefits to both our business and the planet.
ESG represents Environmental, Social and Governance principles—a comprehensive framework that measures how a company operates regarding the planet, its people, and ethical business practices. Our solar initiative is just one example of how we’re putting these principles into action.
Local
Tucker’s Natural first sourcing policy is local, starting with South Australia. This significantly reduces our food miles.
Waste
All waste streams are separated in our production facility. Tucker’s recycle what we can and minimise any waste going to landfill.
PACKAGING
Tucker’s Natural have been working with suppliers to attain full recyclability for all the packaging components we use. We have achieved full recyclability on our inner and outer cartons and plastic trays. So, you can use kerbside recycling for these packaging components.
Our PVDC film can be recycled as a soft plastic and for this reason Tucker’s Natural joined the REDcycle Program, who had teamed with national retailers Coles and Woolworths for deposit locations. Unfortunately, this has folded due to process production issues.
We continue to work with our film supplier to secure a fully kerbside recyclable film.
We have now joined the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation (APCO) which is a not-for-profit organisation leading the development of a circular economy for packaging in Australia.

Our Ongoing Commitment
Sustainability is a journey, not a destination. We continuously seek new ways to reduce our environmental footprint, support our communities, and maintain the highest standards of corporate governance while delivering the natural products our customers trust and love.
