Environmental guidelines

As one of the world’s leading manufacturers of technical adhesive tapes for industrial clients and end consumers, we have developed binding environmental guidelines that govern our actions all around the globe:

1. Our product and system solutions are designed to impact the environment as little as possible during their manufacture, use, and disposal.
2. tesa pursues environmental protection on its own initiative and responsibility, and implements the necessary measures.
3. tesa complies with legal regulations and official requirements as minimum standards.
4. tesa continually improves its environmental management system and environmental protection technologies in cooperation with authorities, research institutions, and associations.
5. We use limited resources such as energy, water, and raw materials economically. Avoiding, reducing, and reusing waste takes priority over its disposal. The design of products and production processes is based on this principle.
6. In order to protect air, soil, and water, tesa takes measures on its own initiative to prevent conceivable accidents.
7. tesa pursues an open information policy towards employees, authorities, neighbors, institutions, customers, and suppliers.
