The strategic partnership between ASL Global and Henkel continues to grow, as both companies re-double their efforts to enhance and deliver sustainable solutions. Through this collaboration, ASL Global has successfully completed a comprehensive audit with Together for Sustainability (TfS).

Henkel is one of the six leading chemical & consumer brand companies who launched the Together for Sustainability (TfS) initiative in 20211, which provides in-depth assessment of supply partners’ sustainability practices and is conducted by leading independent auditor, Intertek.

ASL’s audit included a robust analysis of its operations, assessed and verified against a defined set of audit criteria across the key areas of Management, Environment, Health & Safety, Labour & Human Rights, and Governance. ASL achieved an extremely high score and was ranked as an ‘Advanced’ supplier with no critical findings.

Wai Hoong Lee, ASL’s Chief Compliance Officer commented “Henkel requested an assessment of our sustainability performance through the TfS framework, and we were very happy to engage with the initiative. We're upfront and transparent about our ESG goals & objectives as an organization and we viewed this audit as an opportunity to identify improvement areas relating to our overall sustainability performance. We anticipated some challenges, which can arise with such a wide ranging, comprehensive audit, but there were no major issues identified and we are proud to have achieved such a high score.”

“We encourage collaboration with like-minded organisations to help our collective efforts dovetail in the advancement of sustainable practices throughout the supply chain. It is a pleasure to receive an outstanding result on the TfS audit, reflecting not only ASL's commitment to sustainability, but also our effectiveness in developing sustainable value chains. We look forward to continuing our sustainability journey together.” said John Pollock, Global Sales Director of ASL.
