Low Emissions Raw Materials
Design for Sustainability
Corporate sustainability reporting obligations (such as CSRD) and climate-related disclosure (e.g., California’s SB-253 & SB-261, pending SEC climate rules) are fast-tracking the need for standardized data & methodologies for transparency and reporting.
In a world where the impact of chemical substances is ever-evolving, the focus is on rethinking existing products – including the balance chemical hazard vs performance – and advancing responsible practices when it comes to the development of sustainable solutions.
It starts with us: Reducing the Scope 1 and Scope 2 carbon footprint of companies’ operations is the first step to take meaningful climate action and reduce carbon emissions based on renewable energy and energy efficient practices.
Keeping valuable materials in the loop to preserve resources is key to address many environmental issues: With the US facing regulations around Extended Producer Responsibilities and recycled content quotas, the need for practical solutions is accelerated across industries.
The impact of companies extends beyond their own sites along the supply chain: The transformation toward more sustainable raw materials and reducing Scope 3 emissions requires deep value chain know-how and dedicated partnerships.
The sustainability of a product is determined in the product design phase – rethinking the status quo and having sustainability in mind from the beginning is crucial to design products that enable optimized resource use, prolonged product use, recycling, and many more aspects of sustainability.
