Sustainability is at the core of futurizing our business
The world is facing urgent challenges on a scale that has not been seen before. That means finding solutions that have not been done before.
If we are to improve quality of life for a growing population while simultaneously tackling climate change and protecting critical resources, we as a society must act quickly and decisively. Industry in particular has a fundamental role to play in redirecting our course toward a livable future for people and planet.
Our mission
At Evonik Active Oxygens, we want to lead beyond chemistry by creating solutions for a sustainable future.
We want to produce environmentally friendly chemicals that offer green alternatives to conventional products and processes. We want to produce them sustainably. And we want to develop innovative solutions and technologies both for and with our customers.
Because for us, “sustainability” is not a decorative add-on. It is at the core of futurizing our business. It means equipping ourselves, our customers, and our communities to tackle the challenges of tomorrow.
> It is essential to remaining an agile market leader in the long term.
> It is a source of opportunity and innovation.
> And it is the only way forward.
The word itself means the “ability to sustain”: to sustain our business and our way of life.
Our commitment
At Active Oxygens, we know what we need to do. And we have the means to do it.
We produce some of the world’s cleanest chemicals: Hydrogen peroxide, peracetic acid, and persulfates are key components in a wide range of future-forward applications, from semiconductors to soil cleanup. Yet they break down into benign components that leave hardly a trace. This combination of versatility and green handprint creates enormous potential to shift conventional practices onto a more sustainable track.
We are therefore committed to providing sustainable solutions for our customers, our communities, and our environment.
