BUNZL FOR BETTER
Taking action to support a better environment. community. tomorrow.
Better in Action
BUNZL FOR BETTER is a movement our 1100+ employees, our vendor partners and our customers get behind with energy and passion.
Together, we drive actions that protect the environment and promote social equity, inclusion, and opportunity – in short, helping to make our world…better.
How are we being BETTER?
Across the country, Bunzl employees are making Canadian communities better one small act at a time. From tree planting events to sponsoring community organizations, every act is a step towards a BETTER tomorrow.
BUNZL FOR BETTER Days
Everyone wants to volunteer. But when we asked employees what was holding them back from doing it, the common answer was ‘no time.’
BUNZL FOR BETTER Days give each employee the time they need to volunteer for a cause that means the most to them.
One, Two, Tree!
Bunzl Canada is a proud sponsor of Tree Canada, supporting the growth of resilient ecosystems and greener communities across Canada.
In October of 2025, 19 Bunzl team members traded in their laptops for shovels and planted 90 trees at Thorpe Park in Burlington, ON. This event was in support of Conservation Halton as part of the city’s ongoing efforts to expand their tree canopy and enhance native biodiversity.
Through the sponsorship of a Community Tree Grant, we helped Burlington Green – a local non-profit organization – plant over 600 shrubs and trees at Longmoor Park in Burlington.
This partnership is just one way we’re helping make our communities a better place to live, one tree at a time.
Ripple of Hope Golf Tournament
Last year, we hosted the 25th annual Ripple of Hope golf tournament in support of the Arthur & Sonia Labatt Brain Tumour Research Centre at Toronto’s Hospital for Sick Children.
On July 8th, 2025 Bunzl Canada teams, our vendor partners, and cleaning and hygiene, safety, industrial, grocery/retail/processor business customers gathered at Greystone Golf Club in Milton, Ontario. Everyone enjoyed a day of fiesta-themed golf as they fundraised and increased awareness for Toronto SickKids’ advanced pediatric brain tumour research initiatives.
Over the last two decades, us and our supporters have raised over $1.93 million to fund the revolutionary work at SickKids Hospital to combat life-threatening pediatric neurosurgical conditions. This year’s 25th annual tournament surpassed over:
$130,000+ raised in one day
$1,900,000+ raised over 25 years
National Toilet Paper Day
On August 26, 2025 we announced another BUNZL FOR BETTER initiative to mark National Toilet Paper Day and continuing our partnership with Food Banks Canada. This continued collaboration highlights and addresses the critical need for personal hygiene products and other non-food essentials that many Canadians from coast-to-coast-to-coast struggle to afford.
With the help our warehouse staff and the incredible support from our vendors Cascades , Sunset, Kruger Products, Essity , and Kimberly-Clark Professional, over…
57,000+
rolls of toilet paper were donated to local food banks across Canada.
