Our verdict

Myprotein lacks standalone environmental disclosure despite operating manufacturing and distribution at significant scale. No reported Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions; no water data; no absolute emissions trajectory. Group-level SBTi targets exist but delivery is unverified. Award-winning waste diversion programme is the only concrete operational win.

Myprotein scores 38/100 (Below expectations) on SINK's independent climate assessment, scored from public data only. Scores are free. Companies can never pay for anything about their own score. Last verified May 2026.

That places Myprotein joint 460th of 934 companies scored, and joint 33rd of 51 in Food & Beverage (non-meat).

The ten questions

What is Myprotein doing well, and where does it fall short?

Strongest on Controversies & Red Flags and Resource Use & Waste (6/10, 5/10). Weakest on Carbon Footprint: Supply Chain and Emissions Trajectory (2/10, 2/10).
