    - For the third time, the U.S. company Mercomm. Inc. granted its
prestigious iNOVA Award for the world's best corporate Internet site. This
year, the global website of Henkel Group (www.henkel.com) was given the iNOVA
Bronze Award for Excellence in Corporate Websites.

More than 260 entries applying to win the award were submitted from 10 
countries. The competition designed to determine the best corporate Web 
pages focused on design, navigational structure, contents, innovative 
strength, as well as the value to the user. The jury also evaluated the 
concept underlying the website, the level of creativity and the extent to 
which the Internet pages succeeded in conveying and supporting the
company's goals. The experts serving on the jury represented the fields of
Internet marketing, advertising, public relations as well as design
specialists, and involved prominent companies and agencies such as AT&T
Wireless, Porter Novelli and MGM Communications.



    The jury was particularly impressed by the comparative
timeliness and comprehensive scope of the information provided by Henkel on
its corporate website. "As is always the case in such situations, the results
of this ranking are an incentive for us to do things even better," says Mr.
Ernst Primosch, Director of Corporate Communications at Henkel Group. "We are
continually striving to improve the user-friendliness of our website."
