THE FOUNDATION<\/h1><\/div>

In 1990, the R\u00f6chling family of entrepreneurs established the non-profit foundation to consolidate their activities for the common good under one roof. Since 2018, the R\u00f6chling Foundation has focused its activities entirely on the topic of plastics and the environment. It supports both the commitment of civil society organizations and scientific research projects that contribute to improved recycling of plastics. <\/p>\n

The R\u00f6chling Foundation does not see itself as a mere project sponsor. More important than its financial contributions is its role as an information and dialogue platform and as a bridge builder between the numerous and diverse actors from civil society, business, science and politics. A stronger joint effort by these different sectors is the most important goal of the R\u00f6chling Foundation’s work. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The Board of Trustees<\/h2><\/h1><\/div>

The Board of Trustees of the R\u00f6chling Foundation determines the strategic direction of the foundation’s work, develops the strategy and decides on projects and collaborations.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The Shareholders<\/h2><\/h1><\/div>

R\u00f6chling-Stiftung gGmbH has three shareholders who represent the entire R\u00f6chling family of entrepreneurs. They do not hold their shares in the foundation for their own benefit, but purely as trustees for the fulfillment of the foundation’s purpose. In addition, the three shareholders determine the annual financial framework for the activities of the R\u00f6chling Foundation. <\/p>\n<\/div>
