Renewable energy powering Tesa Sugru production

Not promises, proven progress.

We’re recognised globally for pioneering adhesive technologies, but we’re also determined to lead the way in sustainability and have set ourselves bold targets. Our aim is not simply to benefit the environment, but to enhance and optimize business, and drive customer value. While 95% of our global electricity already comes from renewable sources, we're establishing climate neutral production, collaborating with suppliers, prioritizing recyclability and bio-based materials, and empowering our customers.

Together, we do more.

By making shared sustainability goals an essential part of our innovation in adhesive technologies, we're powering the push for climate neutrality by 2030, and proving that sustainability and business go hand in hand.
