Kimberly-Clark’s plant in Koblenz, Germany, is on the road to 100% renewable energy by 2029.


Kimberly Clark‘s site in Koblenz, Germany, is on path to 100% renewable energy by 2029 – a global first for a Kimberly-Clark tissue manufacturing facility.

The site will electrify its heating needs as well as source its electricity demand via a portfolio of European power purchase agreements of offsite renewables.  The transition will be complete by 2029 and reduce carbon emissions by approximately 50,000 MTCO2e per year, equivalent to the annual energy use of 6,700 homes.

This means that many  iconic brands produced at Koblenz, including Kleenex, Scottex, Scott, WypAll, Page & Hakle will very soon be made in a more environmentally friendly way.

A huge thank you to all the teams involved in this project and helping us to deliver Better Care for a Better World.
