Doing good with chemistry

Our sustainability strategy marks an important milestone in our commitment to responsible and sustainable practices. Our strategy starts with our purpose, ‘doing good with chemistry’, which leads us to our commitment of enabling sustainable innovations everywhere. Sustainable solutions and operations are part of our foundation. We intend to create business value by enabling sustainable innovations for our customers and across value chains. Sustainability is positioned as a key differentiator and a value driver for us. 

Enabling sustainable innovations everywhere 

Chemicals are the fundamental building blocks for human life. Approximately 96 percent of all manufactured products rely on chemicals: the clothes you wear, the chair you sit on, the medicine you take, the car you drive. This means that the transition of products in society begins with the transition of the chemical industry. 

We have the opportunity to make a significant positive impact; by driving change, transforming our production and enable new solutions that will help industries and products everywhere we operate become more sustainable. We are fully committed to do so and to always act respectfully with regards to people, environment and society.

Outer sustainability framework

Our sustainability work abides to several external sustainability frameworks, which also help shape our sustainability strategy. These include the Paris Climate Agreement, the UN Sustainable Development Goals, and alignment with the EU Green Deal – including EU Chemicals strategy for Sustainability and Fit for 55. 

Demand for sustainability is also a key driver of the chemicals market and its investments in the many years to come, as all actors in the value chain seek more sustainable solutions to meet their growing ambitions in the area. Perstorp welcome these initiatives and are working hard not only to meet them, but to set an even higher bar.

Sustainability Targets for 2030 and 2035

Our sustainability targets guide how we move towards our long-term ambition of Zero Negative Impact and help ensure progress across climate, water, and waste.
