"Our 2023 ambition to advance the well-being of 1 billion people in vulnerable and underserved communities with the smallest environmental impact is at the center of everything we do - not just from a global nonwovens standpoint." - Lori Shaffer, Vice President of Global Research and Engineering

Nonwovens Industry recently named Kimberly-Clark as a Top 40 Nonwovens Industry Company in recognition of the role nonwovens continue to play as a key driver of innovation and growth for both our business and brands. Lori Shaffer, vice president of global research and engineering, was featured in a profile where she shared insights into our ongoing commitment to nonwovens, evidenced by the expansion of our Corinth, Mississippi manufacturing facility. This investment further supports our three core objectives of enhancing skin health, delivering garment-like comfort and advancing sustainability to deliver benefits for our consumers.

“Growth and sustainable innovation/practices should go hand-in-hand. Our 2030 ambition to advance the well-being of 1 billion people in vulnerable and underserved communities with the smallest environmental impact is at the center of everything we do—not just from a global nonwovens standpoint. This is woven into all our brands and plans.”
