#WWD25 | World Water Day 2025 💧 This year’s theme of World Water Day is "Glacier Preservation". ❄️ Glaciers are vital to life - their meltwater is, for example, essential for drinking water, clean energy production, and healthy ecosystems. But due to climate change, glaciers are melting faster than ever, with profound consequences for #people and the #planet. Check unwater.org for exciting but alerting info ▶️ https://lnkd.in/dz6k9hjc And again, we end up with the same indispensable necessity. Reducing global greenhouse gas emissions is a key element in mitigating global warming and therefore protecting glaciers. ⛔️ At CHT Group, we take climate protection seriously. That's why we committed ourselves to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Our defined short- and long-term climate targets have been validated by SBTi. 🏭 But still, our way to Net-Zero until 2045 will be challenging for us and our business partners along our value chain. Are you ready to drive change without compromises. We are! #WorldWaterDay #WaterConservation #Climatechange #GlacierPreservation #EveryDropCounts #smartchemistry

Today’s Global Recycling Day ♻️ is a reminder that too many resources are still used linearly, and that #recycling is an essential part of achieving a circular economy that can save resources and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. 🌍 CHT Group is aware of its responsibility regarding the use of resources and the reduction of GHG emissions within its own production processes, but also along the entire value chain. That is why we attach great importance to recycling material, since it helps us to: ✔️ reduce our waste generation ✔️ increase the use of recycled and secondary raw materials in our products ✔️ promote our excellent products, based on recycled raw materials: for example TUBINGAL RISE, with which CHT has successfully introduced the first textile softener based on recycled silicones and emulsifiers from renewable raw materials to the market Achieving a circular economy still has a challenging way to go, but at CHT Group we support that direction with full force and have therefore integrated circular economy as part of our corporate strategy. 🌟 #REDUCE #REUSE #RECYCLE #REPAIR- Make a difference together with CHT Group.   #recycling #circulareconomy #wastereduction #carbonemissions #saveressources #people #planet #profit
