Sustainability

Many rankings and awards acknowledge Henkel as a global leader in sustainability and corporate social responsibility (CSR). And because we embraced these ideals many decades ago, we are in fact already working on solutions to the problems of our age, such as the growing threat of climate change. With this in mind, we are consistently optimizing all of our brands and technologies in three phases of their life cycle: research and development, production, and use.

The limited availability of water, energy and other resources has been recognized as a global challenge. We have taken up this challenge, and we confront it by taking action locally in more than 125 countries. We aim to make a valuable contribution to society. The basis for this is our vision to make people’s lives easier, better and more beautiful with our brands and technologies. Our way of achieving this in a sustainable and socially responsible manner is to combine excellent performance with responsibility toward people and the environment.
