Wiping Responsibly
Kimberly-Clark’s vision guides us to make lives better through the essential products we make, and the programs we implement in the communities where we live and work. To that end, Kimberly-Clark is working to tackle the challenges associated with post-consumer waste and single-use plastics with a focus on delivering a preferred consumer experience for products, such as baby wipes and flushable wipes, while reducing their overall impact from source to shelf and beyond. Kimberly-Clark’s Lisa Morden, VP of Safety and Sustainability, discusses the emerging challenges faced by companies from NGOs, regulatory agencies and activist consumers, and the steps they are taking to address the issue of post-consumer waste.
