The Philosophy
Kimberly-Clark’s commitment to sustainability has enabled it to lead the personal products category in the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index for five consecutive years. Addressing sustainability issues and incorporating solutions through all levels is a critical component of the Kimberly-Clark business. Kimberly-Clark is committed to responsible fibre procurement practices and the sustainable use of natural resources, whilst sourcing a wide variety of virgin and recycled fibres to manufacture tissue products.
The Forestry Stewardship Council (FSC) is Kimberly-Clark’s preferred certification scheme for wood fibre. Kimberly-Clark puts significant effort into using synthetic fibres efficiently and reducing or eliminating unnecessary product packaging. It is continually developing new ways to help users of its products protect themselves from workplace hazards and prevent infection.
