Würth Group 2020 – 2022 Sustainability Report

Resources and rising prices for raw materials are major risks that the Würth Group is facing in the “material cycles” transformation area

Würth Finance International B.V. observes and analyzes how prices have developed for different raw materials over the last several years. Based on these data, a significant price increase can be recognized starting in 2021. This development is also reflected in the procurement prices for the raw materials used by the Würth Group

Supply security is a material topic for the Würth Group ( p. 31). It is influenced by the decreasing availability of raw materials in the face of growing demand. The scarcity of raw materials in turn is reflected in the increasing prices.
