Sihl Sustainability Report 2025
Optimism is the engine that drives us every day to work on sustainable innovations for our customers in almost every industry. We bring together the creativity, experience, and unique expertise of our employees and our partners from science and industry. Together we are strong, developing unique solutions for a sustainable and liveable future.
The protection of our environment and the health of our employees are important components of our success. “Environmental Social Governance“ (ESG) stands for companies’ social responsibility in terms of doing business sustainably. This includes various criteria such as the environment, working conditions and human rights, fair business practices, and sustainable procurement.
Here at Sihl Inc, we aim to leave a CO2 footprint as small as possible through our energy efficiency measures, recycling initiatives, and reduced emissions.
We work everyday to create a "grandchild-friendly" future, which according to Peter Washner, CEO of the Sihl Group explains as:
“For us, ‘Enkelfähigkeit’ means creating values with foresight and responsibility that we can pass on to our descendants and that we ourselves live by – not only in a business sense. It is important to us to take responsibility for people and the environment. We see this as a prerequisite for long-term success.
As part of our #sihljourney, we are proud to create values that will withstand cultural, political and technological change. Everyone who wants to contribute is involved, and our customers benefit from an exceptional level of quality and service.”
We’re also pleased that our initiatives have been awarded various certificates. This is not only an endorsement of our work, but also a guarantee for our customers of the good quality of our products.
