"This year marks a turning point for Amcor," said Amcor Chief Executive Officer Peter Konieczny. "With industry-leading innovation, global scale and deep packaging expertise, the new Amcor is uniquely positioned to deliver breakthrough solutions and advance a circular packaging future."
During the year, Amcor continued to bring new innovations to market that minimize waste and maximize resource efficiency in line with its belief that all packaging can be circular. This includes an expanded AmFiber™ range of paper-based packaging products for consumer favorites like instant coffee pouches and trail mix bars, as well as new formats for its AmPrima®, AmLite™ and HeatFlex™ solutions that bring recycle-readiness to highly technical flexible packaging applications, and its AmSky™ recycle-ready blister pack for pharmaceuticals, among other platforms.
As part of Amcor's focus on promoting circularity across the packaging industry, the company achieved its global target of using 10% post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic by 2025, which equates to 218,000 metric tons of recycled plastic. By the end of FY25, 72% of its packaging production by weight was designed for recyclability (96% of rigid packaging, 49% of flexible packaging, 100% of specialty cartons) and its R&D teams had developed recycle-ready options for 96% of its flexible packaging portfolio.*
Amcor Chief Sustainability Officer David Clark said, "Amcor's ambitious goals and focused strategy are driven by our commitment to leadership in sustainability. Our progress demonstrates we can deliver on our ambitions through innovation, collaboration and advocacy across the value chain."
The company reported additional progress in other core areas of its sustainability strategy. Over the past four years, Amcor has reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from its own operations by 20%, keeping it on track to achieve near-term and net-zero science-based targets, through its comprehensive Decarbonization Roadmap. In FY25, Amcor increased by 100% its use of renewable electricity, which now accounts for 30% of Amcor's total energy consumption. Additionally, in the same period, 75% of the company's operational waste was recycled, and several site-level projects helped reduce water use.

ALULA, Saudi Arabia, Jan. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Today marks the official opening of Desert X AlUla 2026, the landmark fourth edition of the international, open-air biennial exhibition. Arts AlUla, in collaboration with Desert X, welcomes visitors to experience a stellar line-up of Saudi and international multi-generational artists whose site-responsive earthworks, sculptures, and installations will engage in a powerful dialogue with the awe-inspiring landscapes and layered heritage of AlUla.
As a premier destination rich in ancient history and breathtaking nature, AlUla, located in Northwest Saudi Arabia, solidifies its position on the global stage as a dynamic, emerging land art destination with Desert X AlUla, the region's first public art biennale, and a key highlight of the AlUla Arts Festival.
The 2026 edition of Desert X AlUla brings together 11 acclaimed artists whose diverse works reflect a wide spectrum of ideas, materials, and traditions. From monumental kinetic sculpture to sound-based explorations above and below ground, each commission is deeply rooted in relationships to AlUla's distinctive environment, further cementing Desert X AlUla's reputation as a globally significant platform for site-responsive land art.
Desert X AlUla runs until February 28, 2026, as a cornerstone of the annual AlUla Arts Festival. Curated by Wejdan Reda, Zoé Whitley, with artistic direction by Neville Wakefield, and Raneem Farsi, its fourth edition explores 'Space Without Measure.' Inspired by Kahlil Gibran, the theme fosters contemplation of imagination within AlUla's natural settings. The exhibition, set in the desert canyons of AlUla, serves as a pre-opening programme for Wadi AlFann, offering a pivotal glimpse into AlUla's plans to create a permanent land art 'Valley of the Arts.'
Hamad Alhomiedan, Director of Arts & Creative Industries at the Royal Commission for AlUla (RCU), said: "At Desert X AlUla 2026, audiences will engage with art that deeply converses with AlUla's unique landscapes and rich heritage. These compelling commissions highlight AlUla's dynamic transformation into a major global destination, where ancient and contemporary expressions converge. This exhibition is part of our broader revitalisation of AlUla as a culturally rich destination to live, work and visit and integral to positioning AlUla in the global dialogue of contemporary art and as a precursor to monumental projects like Wadi AlFann."

About AlUla and Arts AlUla
Located 1,100 km from Riyadh, in North-West Saudi Arabia, AlUla is a place of extraordinary natural and human heritage. The vast area, covering 22,561km², includes a lush oasis valley, towering sandstone mountains and ancient cultural heritage sites dating back thousands of years to when the Lihyan and Nabataean kingdoms reigned.
The most well-known and recognised site in AlUla is Hegra, the principal southern city of the Nabataean Kingdom and Saudi Arabia's first UNESCO World Heritage Site. AlUla is also home to ancient Dadan, the capital of the Dadan and Lihyan Kingdoms and considered to be one of the most developed 1st millennium BCE cities of the Arabian Peninsula, and Jabal Ikmah, an open air library of hundreds of inscriptions and writings in many different languages. AlUla Old Town Village, a labyrinth of more than 900 mudbrick homes was developed from at least the 12th century and has been revitalised as the vibrant hub for visitors and residents.
The creation of Arts AlUla within The Royal Commission for AlUla (RCU) is a commitment to crafting the next chapters in a millennia of artistic creation – celebrating cultural inheritance and shaping a future inspired by artists built be artists. The work of Arts AlUla seeks to preserve this legacy: fuse the old with the new; the local with the international, keeping the arts central to the spirit of AlUla as a place of extraordinary natural and human heritage.
Wadi AlFann, meaning 'Valley of the Arts,' will be a global cultural destination for land art, unveiling from 2028 onwards, where era-defining works by artists from around the world will be permanently sited in the monumental landscape of AlUla, the extraordinary desert region of north-west Saudi Arabia.
