To ensure sustainable
management, all details of the
value creation phases must
be taken into account. The
Sustainability Report for
2016 addresses a central
question: What can Clariant
as a specialty chemicals
company contribute to the
future? Responsibility must
guide every action. And
aspects related to the three
dimensions performance,
people, and planet have to be
considered in a holistic and
comprehensive approach.
