How We Improve Workplaces Responsibly
We’re one of the world’s largest users of recycled paper in our products. We utilize environmentally responsible shipping, reducing our carbon footprint and diverting waste from landfills. We ensure human rights are respected in our facilities, as well as our global supply chain. We pilot product and packaging innovations that lessen our impact on the environment for generations to come.
Rethinking energy
Kimberly-Clark was the first North America manufacturer to offset its tissue, towel, and wipes production with renewable wind energy.
A pact to reduce plastics footprint
As a founding member of the U.K. and U.S. Plastics Pacts, we’re committed to solving the problem of plastic waste. By 2025, 100% of our packaging will be reusable, recyclable, or compostable.
Increased productivity. Decreased footprint.
We’re working to create the smallest footprint in energy, waste, and water. Our 2030 goal is to reduce Scope* 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 50%, and Scope 3 by 20%.
100% committed to zero-waste
Our facilities worldwide partner with local recyclers to upcycle our manufacturing waste, reaching 97% landfill-free status by 2019 and already achieving 100% in our European mills.
Don’t throw away your chance to recycle
Since 2011, The RightCycle™ Program has helped customers divert over 1,000 tons of PPE from landfills.
Water stewards
Water is essential to our business and the communities where our sites are located. Our commitment to recover and recycle water drives our 2030 goal to achieve sustainable water use at 100% of our facilities in water-stressed regions.
*Our Scopes 1, 2 and 3 greenhouse gas emissions, and our efforts to reduce them, are calculated by the GHG Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard.
