The company is investing in projects around the world that maintain steady progress in each of the company’s three sustainability pillars.
Within its Adhesive Technologies business unit, Henkel’s Global Operations and Supply Chain organization has put sustainability goals for its operations into action. The company is investing in projects around the world that maintain steady progress in each of the company’s three sustainability pillars: climate positivity, circular economy, and social progress.
Henkel has defined the target to become climate positive by 2040. On the way to becoming climate positive, the company aims to reduce its CO2 footprint in production by 75% until 2030 and by then using 100% of its electricity from renewable sources. As a result, Adhesive Technologies is constantly increasing its efforts to improve energy efficiency. An important building block are global projects to increase the use of solar energy, enabling on-site photovoltaic generation that directly feeds energy into the production sites.
