At NCH, we know we have a responsibility to treat everyone equally, whether customer, colleague, or partner.

But for us, it goes much further.

Our strategic commitment to Equality, Diversity & Inclusion sets out the steps we’re taking to create an environment that’s equal and fair for all.

There’s a lot to do, but our EDI commitment, along with our commitments to Growth and Environmental Sustainability, will help us to meet the aims set out in our corporate strategy, NCH Strategy 2025.
