The three key components of
Kimberly-Clark Corporation's
Sustainability 2015 vision -
People, Planet and Products - are
closely aligned with The Healthy
Workplace Project; an
initiative designed to
promote a healthier,
more engaged
workforce.
Every product in The Healthy Workplace Project bundle has been created using smart design principles that drive reduced usage - minimising environmental impact and cost-in-use.
Kleenex and Scott hand towels are made with absorbency pockets so fewer are needed to dry hands. Meanwhile the company's foam soap claims to deliver twice as many hand washes per litre compared with standard liquid soap. As it doesn't require water to lather, it greatly reduces water usage.
Various hand towels incorporate Aiflexfabric technology, which uses 17 per cent less fibre than standard fabric; many are also FSC or Ecolabel certified. Hand sanitisers are made from renewable bioethanol, and several of its hand cleansers are Ecolabel certified.
