In addition to the plastic waste extraction program via the Plastic Bank partnership, Alcon developed the green innovations surgical team (GreenIST) program that is also working with Alcon’s research and development team to eliminate up to 90% of packaging and shipping waste across the company’s major global products. For its Vision Care products, Alcon offset its plastic footprint for DAILIES TOTAL1® and PRECISION1® in 2022, which removed more than 600,000kg of plastic, preventing the equivalent of 30 million plastic bottles from contributing to coastal pollution.1 Building on these efforts, for 2023, Alcon has extended its offset program to include Systane® Eye Drops sold across more than 30 markets, including Australia, Egypt, France, New Zealand and United Arab Emirates. This represents 150,856kg of plastics, equivalent to over 7.5 million plastic bottles, that will be prevented from reaching the ocean this year.1 In total, Alcon’s DAILIES TOTAL1, TOTAL30®, PRECISION1, and Systane programs are set to achieve plastic neutrality across more than 90 countries globally.3 Alcon’s partnership with Plastic Bank complements the global eye care company’s larger efforts to reduce waste, emissions and chemicals of concern associated with Alcon’s products and services. 1.
