assessments
Life cycle assessments allow us to measure the environmental impact of our solutions.
Materiality
Materiality assessment allows us to identify and focus on the issues most relevant to our triple bottom line.
ESG integration
ESG allows us to continually track and improve our environmental, social and governance performance.
Stakeholder engagement
We know that we cannot achieve better lives in a growing world alone. Our stakeholders are essential to our current and future success.
Creating value for our customers
Fluctuating raw material prices and volatile markets are an everyday reality for many of our customers. Our solutions can help them use raw materials more efficiently to reduce, or substitute, use of traditional chemicals with more sustainable alternatives.
We can help customers develop Life Cycle
Assessment (LCA) studies. These studies help identify the areas of a
product life cycle that represent the biggest cost saving opportunities.
With climate change high on the agenda, many of our customers see sustainability as a differentiator. Our long-term target for global CO2 savings resulting from customers’ application of our products enables us to track and document our impact.
