From the very beginning, circularity has been at the core and at the heart of everything that we do. This makes us even more determined: We work every day to make our products and operations even more sustainable - for a healthier future worth living.
In our Responsibility Report 2024/25, we share how we at CWS Hygiene take responsibility and embed sustainability at the heart of what we do. The report outlines our CO₂ reduction roadmap, highlights circular product innovations, and showcases social initiatives from across Europe. Guided by our principle Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, we demonstrate how responsibility becomes measurable progress together, with our people and for a healthier future.
We continuously optimize our products to have a positive impact on people & planet and partner with suppliers who pursue the similarly high standards.
We constantly improve our operations with the aim to protect our environment, especially with regards to carbon emissions and water.
We close the loop with extended repairing and refurbishment activities to prolong the lifecycle of our products and allow for recycling at end of life.
By 2030, we aim to reduce CO2 by 50%.
Our cotton towel rolls can be washed and reused up to 100 times.
Our recycled polyester mats give over 1 mio PET bottles a second live p.a.
All our soaps are 100% free of microplastics.
By 2030, 30% of our fleet will be electric.
We saved 1,900t of CO2 by laundry optimization in the past 3 years.
Our laundry water is used up to four times, saving 4 l/kg of fresh water.
We purchase 100% green energy for most of our locations.
At CWS Hygiene, sustainability is at the heart of our business strategy. We believe that taking responsibility for the environment and society is essential for a healthier future worth living. By integrating sustainable solutions into our services and optimising our operations, we aim to make a positive impact.
