ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY

Inspired by Strong Nature

At Highland Park, we’re surrounded, inspired and defined by Orkney’s dynamic natural beauty and unique environment. Our roots and respect for this landscape run very deep. We have been making whisky here for 227 years and counting, and the current generation of Highland Park custodians are transforming and transitioning our distillery towards a net zero future by 2045.

Our net zero journey is ambitious for a global Single Malt Whisky, produced in a centuries old, island-based distillery. But we’re powered by a different energy here in Orkney, and close collaboration across all our teams and operations is well underway to achieve this. While still in the early stages of our journey, we’ve already taken bold steps towards our near-term target of reducing all our scope emissions by 50% by 2030. 

We remain dedicated to producing the very best quality whisky and to doing so in a way that is sensitive to our local environment and communities. This is being driven by a range of initiatives that are collectively helping to reduce the impact of our distillery operations, create lower impact packaging and protect Orkney’s natural habitats – all of which contribute to our defined net zero goal.
