ESG Overview

We are committed to transparency in our ESG disclosures.

Our Ambition & Approach

Our purpose is to provide Better Care for a Better World. People around the globe benefit from our products in their day-to-day lives, but we know that millions still lack access to basic products that could dramatically improve their quality of life.

Even more, environmental support systems are degrading, with increasing stressors from overconsumption of natural resources and climate change impacts.

As the pace of change accelerates, we believe that this decade—the decisive decade—will drive a change in the way companies conduct business. We aspire to lead the way to a sustainable future and believe that our 2030 roadmap meets this moment.

Kimberly-Clark’s commitment to sustainability has endured for over twenty years. While the language continues to evolve, the same principle remains: what’s good for the world is good for business.

By managing our sustainability risks for the long term and by seeking opportunities to lead, we are realizing benefits including cost savings, more efficient business models, and increased employee and stakeholder engagement.
