Sustainability has been an integral part of Nölken's corporate strategy since 2011, aiming to embed and systematically track and develop topics such as future viability, resource-efficient production, ecological and social commitment, and responsibility throughout the company.
Our sustainability reports are aimed at all our stakeholders – customers, service providers, suppliers, non-governmental organizations, politics and authorities, science, media, as well as our neighbors, the public, and our employees.
In 2026, we published our 15th consecutive sustainability report. The report covers the period from January to December 2025 and provides an overview of our sustainability strategy, our goals, and our progress. We provide information on concepts and measures that we have implemented to make our products, services, and our value chain even more sustainable.
The current report for the year 2025 sets new standards – both in terms of content and methodology.
Furthermore, in 2025 we were awarded the ESG Transparency Award, nominated for the German Sustainability Award, and won the Ecovadis Gold Medal – a great incentive for our continued commitment. Our understanding of sustainability is based on responsibility, partnership, and openness. We are not only concerned with improving our own performance, but also with promoting sustainable development together with customers, suppliers, and partners.
This report covers the business activities and impacts of Nölken Hygiene Products GmbH and Noelken Sp. z o.o. The reporting boundaries essentially follow our production boundaries. The publication of the next comprehensive sustainability report is planned for the first half of 2027.
We want to align our company and our products even more sustainably in the future. We can only achieve this through dialogue with you.
