Is After Eight sustainable?

We do not yet score enough After Eight products to give the brand a sustainability rating. Nestlé has pledged 100% recyclable packaging by 2025 and 100% responsibly sourced cocoa, but After Eight's multi-layer packaging is not widely recyclable.

We read sustainability as verifiable practice, not marketing: third-party certification, packaging design, sourcing disclosure and published, dated targets. Claims without evidence score as unverified.
