Henkel to stop investments in Russia

Henkel plans to freeze future investment plans in Russia and provide financial aid package to Ukraine.

The adhesives company is doing everything possible to support affected employees in this dramatic situation. Last week, the company launched a financial aid package of more than 1 million euros. This contains for example financial emergency aid for each affected colleague, a financial donation to the International Red Cross and paid time-off for all volunteers who support refugees or aid organizations at the borders.

For now, Henkel will continue to supply essential goods in Russia, for example household and personal hygiene products. The company will closely monitor the dynamic situation and decide on further measures.
