Sustainability
Our path into the future
Our strategic focus on sustainability is clearly defined and ambitious. We endeavour to design our business processes in such a way that they combine long-term success with a positive impact on the environment and society. It is a path full of challenges that we can only take with consistent action and constant self-reflection.
At the centre of our efforts is a focus on the essentials: the health of our planet and the well-being of people. We recognise that economic success must not come at the expense of the environment or society. That’s why we work closely with our stakeholders to ensure that our business practices are ethical, transparent and built for the long term.

People are at the centre of everything we do
What does a family business like dalli understand by sustainable HR work?
Ecological responsibility
Sustainable supply chains
dalli has been using sustainable raw material sources in the manufacture of its products since 2018. Within a very short space of time, the company switched to 100% palm (kernel) oil from sustainable sources.
Packaging
The main packaging materials used in our company are paper & cardboard, followed by plastics, metals (tinplate & aluminium and glass). The total quantity consumed has fallen by 8.5 percentage points overall.
Recycling
The proportion of recycled aluminium at dalli was already increased to 56% in 2023. In addition to conserving primary resources, this also helps in the fight against climate change, saving 27,800 tonnes of CO2 in 2023 alone.

The chemistry has to be right
“We continuously monitor and improve the sustainability of dalli products. We owe this not only to our customers, but above all to the environment. At the same time, our products have to reconcile ecology, sustainability and value for money in order to stand up to brand and private label competition.”
Dr Stefan Müller, Head of R&D Homecare at the dalli group
