In line with its  Sustainability Ambition 2030, Henkel Adhesive Technologies is continuously enhancing the transparency of the environmental impact of its products. This commitment, known as end-to-end transparency, is based on reliable data and consistent measurement methodologies aligned with internationally recognized standards. As part of this approach, Henkel`s construction adhesives business is offering an increasing number of Environmental Product Declarations ‏(EPDs). These declarations provide detailed insights into the environmental footprint of individual products, enabling both Henkel and its customers to make more informed decisions and identify opportunities for continuous sustainability improvements. 

Henkel Adhesive Technologies and Dow ‏(NYSE: DOW) have expanded their long-standing strategic partnership to accelerate decarbonization in adhesives manufacturing across technologies. As a first step, low-carbon feedstocks and renewable electricity will be introduced into Henkel´s hot melt adhesive production processes contributing to a product carbon footprint reduction between 20 and 40 percent depending on the individual product line.

Modern-day packaging is expected to fulfil a whole host of requirements. It needs to protect products, meet growing consumer expectations in terms of sustainability, and support the circular economy – all while ensuring conformity with legal requirements, such as EU packaging regulations. At this year’s ‘Sustainability in Packaging’ conference in Barcelona and the ‘Sustainable Packaging Summit’ in Utrecht, Henkel will be presenting practical solutions to help companies overcome these challenges.
