“We recognize that human health is inseparably linked to environmental health and our commitment to everyday care extends to the planet we call home,” said Thibaut Mongon, Chief Executive Officer. “As we established Kenvue as an independent company, we also recommitted to our Healthy Lives Mission, our Environmental, Social and Governance strategy, and positioned our portfolio of iconic brands and Kenvuers around the world to build lasting positive change.”
