Our Sustainability Journey
Every Step Counts
Sustainability
Keeping our planet and people healthyWe are committed to caring for our planet and ensuring everyone remains happy and healthy. Whether it’s increasing the amount of recyclable packaging, using sustainably sourced fibres in all of our products, or promising to reduce water, carbon and waste in our manufacturing, we will continue to do our bit. In turn, we’re making it easier for you to do yours.
All of the Kleenex® Brand tissue boxes are made from recycled carton and are fully recyclable with your kerbside collection waste.
The Kleenex® Brand are removing the plastic opening from all of their tissue boxes. That’s the equivalent weight of 8 million* 500ml plastic bottles every year!
*Based on total UK sales of Kleenex® boxes in 2019
100% of the fibre used in the Kleenex® Brand tissues comes from sustainable sources which supports a positive change for forests and people around the world.
Since 2013, the Kleenex® Brand are proud to have sent no manufacturing waste to landfill from their factories and will continue to do so.
The Kleenex® Brand factories have reduced carbon emissions by 31.5% since 2005 and are committed to reducing this even further by 2030.
Since 2005, the Kleenex® Brand has reduced the use of water in our production by 23.8% - that’s enough to fill 425 Olympic-size swimming pools!
Kimberly-Clark is committed in its efforts to reduce plastic waste and make it easier for everyone to recycle while continuing to provide quality products you can trust.
