Milestones and memories

Personal Care is not the only one celebrating a significant anniversary. This summer, Croda held a 100th birthday party at Cowick Hall, its global headquarters in Yorkshire, England. Editor Tim Probert caught up with Consumer Care president Sandra Breene – who herself is marking a major milestone this year – to share her considerable industry insight

Tim Probert (TP): How did Croda's birthday party go?

Sandra Breene (SB): We had a week of celebrations at Cowick Hall, including an exhibition about our journey over the last 100 years, with different rooms that focused on four key areas. One was around innovation, one around sustainability, one around globalisation, and one around our people.

It told the story from 1925 up to the present day. We exhibited some amazing things. We even found the first delivery note for the first three barrels of lanolin that were shipped in 1925 from our Rawcliffe Bridge manufacturing site to the nearby train station by horse and cart!
