Working together on sustainable solutions It s time to make a breakthrough towards sustainable solutions. We need to act together to tackle the global challenges and to protect our planet for future generations. We set ourselves ambitious goals. In 2020 we want our product and production loops to be closed and have CO 2 -neutral production. I know that if we want to be responsible in our daily business that we will reach our goals step-by-step.
