Creating sustainable innovations with our customers

We recognize the importance of strong collaboration to drive sustainable change. We are therefore committed to work closely with our customers to co-create innovative and sustainable solutions that address the specific challenges of each unique market and application. By leveraging our material know-how and fostering partnerships, we aim to develop products, services, and initiatives that think sustainability from the beginning and generate strong performance and long-lasting value for both our customers and the planet.

Driving decarbonization along the value chain

By 2030 we aim to be the first adhesives player with climate positive operations. To achieve this, we are driving energy efficiency across our sites, investing into renewable electricity, and defossilizing thermal energy. At the same time, we are collaborating closely with our suppliers to transform our portfolio towards sustainable materials and mitigate Scope 3 Upstream emissions for both ourselves and our customers. Creating data transparency on the individual cradle-to-gate and use phase sustainability impact of our products serves a basis to understand where we can drive the biggest change with our solutions.
