Associations

We are responding to a world of complex and multi-faceted challenges in multiple ways – both through product innovation as well as through our active involvement in collaborations and networks. We know: together we can achieve and change much more than we can alone.

Achieving global common goals

As a global company, we not only have excellent contacts around the world, we also belong to various national and international associations and organisations.

The common goal of most collaborations is the sustainable use of water and nature in order to protect the available raw materials and to work towards a better future together.
