there is huge opportunity for Ball to lead a sustainable charge in the industry . This is recognised by new Sustainability Director Ramon Arratia : “ For me sustainability is a responsibility that we all have , whether that be business , government or society at large . Responsibility also comes with size , and Ball is a huge producer of packaging , even more so after the merger with Rexam , and wants to play a bigger role . Packaging offers a lot of opportunities and I think the superior performance aluminium can in particular has great potential .”
