Carbon Neutrality: a Company Goal

Climate protection is at the very top of WACKER’s agenda. We want to use sustainable products to become carbon neutral by 2050 . To achieve this goal, we’ll create new – and strengthen existing – sustainability business fields. At the same time, we’ll assess our entire portfolio for sustainability. Should a product not meet all the criteria, we’ll set about improving it.
