Did you know that a single surface treatment innovation helped reduce water consumption by 30%, energy consumption by 6%, and save approximately 100 metric tons of CO₂ emissions annually? This was achieved through a collaboration between Henkel and BSH Türkiye, where both teams worked together to simplify the paintshop process for washing machine production while maintaining the high-quality standards required for modern manufacturing. At the heart of the project was BONDERITE M-NT 41044, the world's first approved cleaner-coater for cataphoresis processes. By combining multiple treatment stages into a more streamlined process, the solution helped reduce the number of production steps from nine to five, improving operational efficiency while delivering meaningful sustainability benefits. The results demonstrate how innovation can create value beyond product performance. By reducing resource consumption and simplifying manufacturing processes, companies can improve both environmental outcomes and operational productivity at the same time. This is the kind of progress that industries increasingly need as they balance growth, efficiency, and sustainability goals. As Henkel celebrates 150 years of pioneering spirit, collaborations like this highlight how innovation is helping manufacturers rethink traditional processes and unlock new opportunities for sustainable production. Because pioneering is not only about making products better. It is about making entire processes smarter and more sustainable.
