Delivering against our commitments
Our impacts on planet and people
We monitor our impacts through regular materiality assessments that engage representatives of all key stakeholder groups. We create most value for our customers by focusing on reducing negative climate, nature and social impacts in our raw material supply chains and innovating solutions to address some of the world’s biggest challenges in our focus markets, for example the need for a more sustainable agricultural system to feed a growing population while restoring nature.
Differentiating through sustainability
We look different to peers through the eyes of our customers. Most of our raw material volume is from bio-based, not petrochemical sources; and we sell small quantities of novel ingredients to customers of all sizes that can provide mission-critical sustainability benefits to their formulations.
