What does sustainability mean at BYK?
Sustainability is of high value at BYK and has many facets. We want to be climate neutral as early as 2025. This is an ambitious goal, but by no means everything: the search for alternative raw materials, the reorientation of research and development towards more sustainable products, sustainability in the applications of our customers, and the safest possible recycling in the sense of the circular economy are also among our most important topics.
We integrate the three dimensions of ecology, economy and social commitment into all decision-making processes at BYK.
Unfortunately, we cannot be THE solution to climate change - but we can be part of the solution. With our sustainable solutions, we want to create value - not only for our customers, but also for our environment, our employees and future generations.
Sustainable products
With innovative additives, BYK helps to improve the properties and quality of coatings, plastics and industrial applications. We are continuously expanding our portfolio of sustainable additives in all product groups.
For example, we offer bio-based additives, aqueous systems, PTFE-free wax additives and additives for the recycling of thermoplastics. BYK also produces VOC-free, tin-free, aromatic-free, low cyclic siloxanes and biocide-free additives. Our researchers are also continuously developing further sustainable solutions for our customers around the world.
"At BYK, we uphold our responsibility and minimize the use of resources in our production processes and often also through the use of our products in the end application. We achieve this through sustainable, innovative and differentiated solutions." |
