WYPALL Sustainability
|
|
At KIMBERLY-CLARK PROFESSIONAL*, we understand that the way we use
resources today will shape the world of tomorrow.
|
|
|
That’s why we examine each product’s entire life cycle, from source through
disposal, in efforts to create products that reduce our use of resources at
every stage. Here at KIMBERLY-CLARK PROFESSIONAL* we call this
approach Reduce Today, Respect Tomorrow.*

Minor shifts that lead to major change
|
|
|
Our Eco-Friendly packaging uses 20% post consumer recycled polymer in place of
virgin polymer. In terms of the environment, this reduces our annual CO2 output
by
252 metric tons, which is the equivalent to any one of the following :
- 1,481,380 Gallon Milk Jugs Saved From Landfill Each Year
- 44 Cars Taken Off the Road
|
|
|
We’re also working smarter to become a more responsible manufacturer of
environmentally minded products. We’ve cut back on waste through the entire
manufacturing process by using less fiber, water, and energy per wiper.
With a 10% decrease in manufacturing material waste per wiper, the annual impact
on our environment results in:
- 1,656 Tons of Fiber Saved = 8,598 Trees Saved
- 23.6 Energy Saved (Billions BTU) = 94,510 Equivalent BTU Home-Day
