This is an unclaimed profile. Haleon has not joined Sustainability Tracker to verify their sustainability credentials. We gathered what we could from public sources.

Haleon is a consumer health company that says sustainability is part of how it runs its business. The third-party material here shows it has been recognised by S&P for strong sustainability performance and added to the Dow Jones Sustainability Index Europe. It also points to work on lower-impact packaging, water stewardship, waste circularity, responsible sourcing, and human rights controls. Haleon has also published a Responsible Business Report and a Climate Action Transition Plan. Public sentiment in the material is limited, but the independent signals are mostly positive and focus on its ESG structure, reporting, and climate goals.

Positive Sentiment Found
The public material here is mostly positive, but it is limited and comes mainly from independent press and rating-style sources rather than broad consumer review data. Haleon was recognised by S&P and added to the Dow Jones Sustainability Index Europe, and it was also included in the 2024 S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook, which is a sign that an outside assessor saw strong sustainability performance. A trade article also described Haleon as a company with clear ESG work on inclusion, packaging, and climate. On the consumer side, the only review-style snippet shown is a Trustpilot page for Sensodyne, where a user said they had used the product for years to their satisfaction, though the snippet is not a full sustainability review. Commons Earth also shows a 4.8/5 app rating for its own platform, but that is not a rating of Haleon itself.

Haleon Sustainability Actions

Joined major sustainability index

In February 2024, Haleon was added to the Dow Jones Sustainability Index Europe, a stock-market index that tracks companies with strong sustainability performance. It was also included in S&P’s 2024 Global Sustainability Yearbook, which highlights top performers in the index. The company was said to rank in the top decile for the personal products industry in Europe, meaning it was among the best-scoring companies in that group. This suggests Haleon has built a visible ESG (environmental, social, and governance) profile since becoming a standalone business.

Published ESG reporting firsts

Haleon’s legal and sustainability leadership said the company published its first Responsible Business Report after separating from GSK in 2022. It also published its first Climate Action Transition Plan, which is a roadmap showing how a company plans to cut emissions over time. These reports are meant to show progress on ESG topics and make the company’s approach easier to track. The material also says Haleon created ESG knowledge platforms and a dedicated intranet site to help staff work with the company’s sustainability rules and updates.

Set a 2040 net zero goal

Haleon says it aims to reach net zero carbon emissions from source to sale by 2040. Net zero means cutting emissions as much as possible and balancing the rest, usually with removals or offsets. The company links this goal to The Climate Pledge and Race to Zero, two climate initiatives that push businesses to reduce emissions quickly. It also says it wants to make packaging more sustainable, source ingredients more responsibly, and build water stewardship and waste circularity into its operations. The company reported a first water-neutral site in Cape Town in 2023.

Strengthened human rights controls

Haleon said it rolled out an updated Human Rights Programme to improve how it manages labour and rights risks in its business and supply chain. The changes included better contract clauses, stronger codes, more due diligence, training, audit processes, and remediation steps. Due diligence means checking risks before problems happen. Remediation means fixing issues when they are found. The company also said it uses data to track how well these controls are being put into practice. This points to a more formal approach to worker and supplier standards.

Used carbon pricing in procurement

Haleon’s legal leadership said the company developed a carbon pricing strategy for supplier tenders. Carbon pricing means putting a cost on emissions so lower-carbon options can compete more fairly in buying decisions. The aim is to give suppliers a reason to cut emissions if they want to win business. The same source says Haleon also launched sustainability product claim standards, which are rules for how teams describe product sustainability claims across markets. That kind of standard can help reduce confusion and keep claims more consistent.

Haleon Sustainability Commitments

2025

Reach 50 million people a year

Haleon says it wants to empower 50 million people a year by 2025 so more people can take part in better everyday health. The company links this goal to its brands and to work on health inclusion, such as projects that try to remove barriers to care. This is a social commitment rather than an emissions target. It suggests Haleon wants its products and programmes to reach more people who may face access gaps.

2040

Cut emissions to net zero

Haleon says it aims to reach net zero carbon emissions from source to sale by 2040. This means it plans to reduce emissions across its operations and value chain, then deal with the remaining emissions in another way. The company says this goal is aligned with The Climate Pledge and Race to Zero. It also says it will work on packaging, sourcing, water stewardship, and waste circularity as part of the same climate plan.

What is Haleon's sustainability rating?

Confidence: High. As of October 2026, Haleon has been recognised by S&P and added to the Dow Jones Sustainability Index Europe, and it was also included in the 2024 S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook. The material says it scored in the top decile for the personal products industry in Europe, which means it was among the stronger performers in that group. This is an independent sign of sustainability performance, not a consumer review score. Consumers can use this as a positive signal, but it does not replace a full audit of the company’s supply chain or products.. Sources: MedEdge MEA - https://mededgemea.com/haleon-recognised-among-global-sustainability-leaders/

What sustainability certifications does Haleon have?

Confidence: Moderate. As of October 2026, the material does not show Haleon holding a formal certification like B Corp or GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard, used for textiles). What it does show is independent recognition from S&P through the Dow Jones Sustainability Index Europe and the Global Sustainability Yearbook. Those are not certifications, but they do suggest outside review of sustainability performance. Haleon also says it has internal ESG standards and reporting systems. Consumers looking for formal product certifications should check the specific product label or ask Haleon directly..

What is Haleon's carbon footprint?

Confidence: Low. As of October 2026, Haleon has not publicly disclosed a full carbon footprint in the material provided. The company does say it aims to reach net zero carbon emissions from source to sale by 2040, and it has used carbon pricing in supplier tenders to encourage lower-emission choices. Net zero means cutting emissions as much as possible and balancing the rest. But the actual footprint number is not shown here. Consumers who want the latest emissions data should check Haleon’s climate report or ask the company directly..

Is Haleon's packaging sustainable?

Confidence: Moderate. As of October 2026, Haleon says it is working to make packaging more sustainable, but the material does not give a full packaging score or a detailed product-by-product breakdown. One example is its role in the Blister Pack Collective, which aims to reduce plastics such as PVC in tablet packs. The company also says it is trying to cut waste and improve circularity, which means keeping materials in use for longer. That points to progress, but the exact impact is not fully public here.. Sources: Free the Birds, MedEdge MEA - https://freethebirds.com/thoughts/championing-the-change-makers-6/, https://mededgemea.com/haleon-recognised-among-global-sustainability-leaders/

Is Haleon ethical in its supply chain and labour practices?

Confidence: Moderate. As of October 2026, Haleon says it has strengthened its Human Rights Programme with better contract clauses, due diligence, training, audits, and remediation steps. Due diligence means checking for risks before they become problems, and remediation means fixing issues when they are found. The company also says it wants to work with third parties that share its standards. That is a positive sign, but the material does not include an independent labour audit or a full supply-chain score. Consumers who want more detail should look for Haleon’s human rights or supplier standards documents..

What is Haleon doing about sustainability?

Confidence: High. As of October 2026, Haleon says it is working on three main areas: making health more inclusive, reducing environmental impact, and acting with ethical and responsible standards. In practice, that includes a 2040 net zero goal, more sustainable packaging, water stewardship, waste circularity, responsible sourcing, and stronger human rights controls. It also says it wants to empower 50 million people a year by 2025 through better access to everyday health. The company has also been recognised by S&P for sustainability performance, which supports the idea that these plans are being tracked externally..
